58 pages. Temps de lecture estimé 43min.
A beautiful story about the possibility of changing one's destiny. A reflection on the difficult balance between the present, the past and the future. A denunciation of the exploitation of children and illiteracy. But above all "A Christmas Carol" is a fable, one of the most moving ever written. The protagonist is the miserly old financier Scrooge, who is visited by three ghosts on Christmas Eve. They prompt him to make a radical change, a conversion that will make him one of the greatest literary figures of all time. This much-loved little book is an immortal work, capable of retaining its magic unchanged over time. It represents the spirit of Christmas, of childhood, of what is good and reassuring, but also precious enough to protect at all costs.
