| | | Simon Callow on A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens | | | | | | "Oh! But he was a tight-fisted hand at the grind-stone, Scrooge! A squeezing, wrenching, gasping, scraping, clutching, covetous, old sinner!”
A Christmas Carol, Charles Dickens’s immortal ghost story with a moral message of hope, good cheer and redemption has been a Christmas tradition, from the Victorian era to the present day.
In this newly launched online event, the actor and writer Simon Callow will talk about this beloved tale and the legacy of Dickens – and will read his favourite scenes from the story. Get into the festive spirit and join him for a cosy morning in, with the Guardian’s associate editor of culture, Claire Armitstead.
