"A Christmas Carol" is a 1843 novella by Charles Dickens. It tells the tale of an elderly miser named Ebenezer Scrooge who is transformed into a kinder, gentler man after receiving visitations from his former partner Jacob Marley, together with the ghosts of Christmas Past, Present, and Future. Originally published on the 19th December, the first edition had sold out by Christmas Eve, with a majority of critics giving it agreeable reviews. The story has never been out of print and has been adapted numerous times for film and stage. A classic of English literature and a must-read for fans and collectors of Dickens's seminal work. Charles John Huffam Dickens (1812-1870) was an English writer and social critic famous for having created some of the world's most well-known fictional characters. His works became unprecedentedly popular during his life, and today he is commonly regarded as the greatest Victorian-era novelist. Although perhaps better known for such works as "Oliver Twist" or "Great Expectations", Dickens first gained success with the 1836 serial publication of "The Pickwick Papers", which turned him almost overnight into an international literary celebrity thanks to his humour, satire, and astute observations concerning society and character. This classic work is being republished now in a new edition complete with an introductory chapter from "Appreciations and Criticisms of the Works of Charles Dickens" by G. K. Chesterton.
Charles Dickensin rakastettu klassikkotarina palauttaa mieliin joulun todellisen sanoman. Kertomuksessa katkeroitunut vanha kitupiikki Ebenezer Scrooge kohtaa menneisyytensä haamut. Matkattuaan halki menneiden ja tulevien joulujen ylimielinen Scrooge oppii, mikä elämässä on oikeasti tärkeää: välittäminen, jakaminen ja toisten ihmisten kunnioittaminen. Vuonna 1843 julkaistu Saiturin joulu on yksi luetuimmista englanninkielisistä tarinoista ja monille olennainen osa joulun perinteitä. Uusi, ajanmukainen käännös Dickensin ikivihreästä kertomuksesta on helposti lähestyttävä myös nuoremmille lukijoille.

Little Dorrit is a novel by Charles Dickens, originally published in serial form between 1855 and 1857. The story features Amy Dorrit, youngest child of her family, born and raised in the Marshalsea prison for debtors in London. Arthur Clennam encounters her after returning home from a 20-year absence, ready to begin his life anew. The novel satirises the shortcomings of both government and society, including the institution of debtors' prisons, where debtors were imprisoned, unable to work, until they repaid their debts. The prison in this case is the Marshalsea, where Dickens's own father had been imprisoned. Dickens is also critical of the lack of a social safety net, the treatment and safety of industrial workers, as well the bureaucracy of the British Treasury, in the form of his fictional "Circumlocution Office". In addition he satirises the stratification of society that results from the British class system.

Dickens started writing the book in Lausanne, Switzerland, before returning to England, via Paris, to complete it.

Han förde mig in i den gröna vagnen. "Ni kommer att få se besynnerliga saker", sade den gamle. Vid dessa ord upplystes rummet av ett klart men blodigt sken. Stödda mot väggarna stod hela rader av lik, gula, hemska, vanställda. Några gapskrattade, andra vred sig i dödsryckningar; några var nakna, andra i rika dräkter. Halvnakna häxor red på bockskelett, fasliga gnomer hakade sig fast i väggarna; över deras huvudskallar skakade en vampyr sina fantastiska vingar. Hela denna vidunderliga värld av orörliga och döda skuggbilder såg ut att vilja skrika och flyga. Ihåliga munnar och tomma ögongropar brann som om blodflammor rann i deras ådror. "Nog!" skrek jag. "Nog, för guds skull!" 30 klassiska rysare samlas här i en antologi fullmatad med fasor, övernaturliga mysterier och gravlika stämningar. Skräckens klassiker samsas sida vid sida med nyupptäckta häxmästare. Och inga av dessa noveller har översatts till svenska i modern tid -- allt kommer att vara lika fräscht och nytt för läsaren som en exklusiv, vällagrad mögelost!
