A Christmas Carol Reprint

6r Charles Dickens. Illustrated by John A. Rice. Reprint Notes The Victorians knew that the end of the year is a precipice, a time of change and transition. They captured the essence of this season—the yearning for what is lost, the fear of the unknown, but also the hope for what is to come—in the fantastical storytelling tradition known as the “midwinter’s tale.” And of all such tales, the most famous is A Christmas Carol. In his new illustrated edition of A Christmas Carol, John A. Rice draws on the influence of Victorian Spiritualism and fin de siècle Symbolism to emphasize the deeper symbolism and spirituality of Dickens’s novella. Description Green hardcover. Illustrated modern reprint.
