A Christmas Carol – Charles Dickens

A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens is one of the most beloved and enduring works of English literature, first published in 1843. This timeless novella tells the story of Ebenezer Scrooge, a cold-hearted and miserly man whose life is transformed over the course of one Christmas Eve through a series of supernatural visitations.

Guided by the Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present, and Yet to Come, Scrooge is forced to confront his own cruelty, isolation, and wasted opportunities. Dickens masterfully blends moral instruction with warmth, humor, and vivid social commentary, exposing the hardships of poverty and the consequences of greed in Victorian England.

At its core, A Christmas Carol is a story about redemption, compassion, and the power of generosity. Its enduring appeal lies in its simple yet profound message—that it is never too late to change. Read across generations and cultures, the novella remains a powerful reminder of human kindness and social responsibility.
