A CHRISTMAS CAROL - Cover of the first edition, 1843 - plus some of the hand painted illustrations by John Leech, Chapman & Hall. Dickens paid for the printing himself, but set the price low (five shillings) - a triumph of art over business. #CharlesDickens #Scrooge

“I will honour Christmas in my heart, and try to keep it all the year. I will live in the Past, the Present, and the Future. The Spirits of all Three shall strive within me. I will not shut out the lessons that they teach.”
-Charles Dickens, A Christmas Carol #Christmas✨

Arthur Rackham’s brilliant take on Dickens’ A Christmas Carol (1915). We love Dickens & Rackham —so this is perfect! ☺️🎄

I love this happy illustration by Norman Rockwell of a Victorian couple dancing. It was painted for the December cover of The Saturday Evening Post in 1928. It reminds me of Mr. Fezziwig from Dickens' A Christmas Carol.
No one is useless in this world who lightens the burdens of another.

My version of A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens.
I’ve just listened to a very good episode of In Our Time with Melvyn Bragg on Radio 4. Melvyn and the panel discuss A Christmas Carol and the history of Dickens’ writing it.

''In life I was your partner, Jacob Marley. I am here to-night to warn you, that you have yet a chance and hope of escaping my fate.'' ''You will be haunted,'' resumed the Ghost, “by Three Spirits.” #AChristmasCarol #Scrooge #CharlesDickens #Christmas #illustration
Scrooge: “You may be an undigested bit of beef, a blot of mustard, a crumb of cheese, a fragment of an underdone potato. There’s more of gravy than of grave about you, whatever you are!”
A Christmas Carol, Charles Dickens
Dickens gioca con i sensi,il profumo del dolce sulla tavola,la consapevolezza degli odori,con il recupero dei ricordi.Niente è più evocativo degli odori,e finalmente il trascorrere del tempo trova un senso.
