あらすじ・解説
Charles Dickens wrote A Christmas Carol—A Ghost Story of Christmas in Five Staves, when he was 31. The first edition was published on December 19, 1843, and had sold out just four days later! By the end of 1844, it was running to 13 editions. Now with numerous adaptations for film, television, radio, stage—and indeed in audio—it has, for many, become an essential part of Christmas.
Raconteurs Audio has created this collection to include Dickens' two Christmas novellas, The Chimes and The Cricket on the Hearth, as well as some of his lesser-known short stories with a Christmas theme.
