A Christmas Carol, by Charles Dickens, published in 1843 in London, is one of the most beloved stories of the holiday season. This unique tale is shaped so that it becomes a celebration of the human spirit, as the old curmudgeon, Ebenezer Scrooge, is given a chance to reawaken his conscience and experience a rebirth of his humanity
