About This Item
Harcourt Brace & Company, October 1998. Hardcover. New. In his Preface to 'A Christmas Carol', Charles Dickens wrote that he tried 'to raise the Ghost of an Idea' with readers and trusted that it would 'haunt their house pleasantly'. In December 1997, 154 Christmases later, the 'New York Times Magazine' asked its own Edward Gorey to refurbish this enduring morality tale. The result is this 'dispirited and distasteful diversion for Christmas'. Illustrations. Family-owned bookshop in Steubenville, Ohio: BookMarx Bookstore. Books shipped within 24 hours.
Synopsis
Gorey has never been funnier or more “impossible to resist” ( Boston Herald ) than in this peculiar retelling of Charles Dickens’s A Christmas Carol .
