About this audiobook
In Charles Dickens' "A Christmas Carol," the story unfolds on a cold and foggy Christmas Eve in London. Ebenezer Scrooge, a miserly old man, dismisses the festive cheer around him with a disdainful "Bah! Humbug!" He shuns charity collectors and refuses to join his nephew Fred for Christmas dinner. That night, Scrooge is visited by the ghost of his former business partner, Jacob Marley, who is condemned to an eternity of torment for his greed and warns Scrooge of a similar fate. Marley informs Scrooge that he will be visited by three spirits, each offering a chance at redemption.
Throughout the night, the spirits of Christmas Past, Present, and Yet to Come take Scrooge on a journey through his life. The Ghost of Christmas Past reveals Scrooge's lonely childhood and lost love, while the Ghost of Christmas Present shows the joy and hardship experienced by others, including his underpaid clerk Bob Cratchit and his family. Finally, the Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come presents a grim future, highlighting Scrooge's un-mourned death. Profoundly affected by these visions, Scrooge awakens on Christmas morning with a transformed heart. He embraces the spirit of Christmas, generously helps those in need, and reconciles with his family, ultimately embodying the true meaning of the holiday.
