Christmas Carol (Singles Classic)

Lewis H. Lapham

0/5 ( ratings)

Our story begins with the appalling sight of Ebenezer T. Scrooge V, a benign and mild-mannered man in his late fifties, generous to a fault, who for many years has been squandering his great-great-grandfather’s noble fortune on misguided schemes to rescue the unrepentant poor.

Lewis Lapham reimagines Dickens’s classic tale to fit the mid-nineties’ political climate, as the Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present, and Future, guide a softhearted Scrooge through the dangers of welfare and the wonders of well-earned excess.

Christmas Carol was originally published in Harper’s, December 1995.

Cover design by Adil Dara.

Language: English

Pages: 9

Format: Kindle Edition
