Christmas Books (Battle of Life / Chimes / Christmas Carol / Cricket on the Hearth / Haunted Man)
Dicken's English Christmas classic reminds us in this increasingly materialistic world, of the danger that the essential spirit of Christmas could be submerged, and The Chimes, the story of a nightmare in which Toby Veck, porter and runner of errands, under the influence of the goblins of the church bells and a dish of tripe, witnesses awful misfortunes befalling his daughter, a vision happily dissipated at the end.
