Essential Dickens: Excerpts from a Christmas Carol

A Christmas Carol, in a full cast dramatization, on audiobook for the first time

As much a part of Christmas as mistletoe, Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol warms the heart of listeners with its tale of the miserly Ebenezer Scrooge.

This enchanting, full-cast recording brings Dickens' London to life on a Christmas Eve when Mr. Scrooge, who loves money more than people, is visited by his old, dead business partner Marley and three Ghosts who show him Christmas Past, Christmas Present, and Christmas Yet to Come.

Through the fine characterizations of acclaimed actors led by Sir Ralph Richardson and Paul Scofield, Scrooge's journey through his life and the lives of those around him charms and delights the listener as he, and they, learn the true meaning of Christmas.
