They captured the essence of this season--the yearning for what is lost, the fear of the unknown, but also the hope for what is to come--in the fantastical storytelling tradition known as the \"midwinter's tale.\" And of all such tales, the most famous is \u003cem\u003eA Christmas Carol\u003c\/em\u003e.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e In his new illustrated edition of \u003cem\u003eA Christmas Carol\u003c\/em\u003e, John A. Rice draws on the influence of Victorian Spiritualism and fin de si?cle Symbolism to emphasize the deeper symbolism and spirituality of Dickens's novella. Through five absorbing full-page illustrations and a number of enchanting vignettes--married to an elegant typographic design--Rice reveals Scrooge's encounters with the spirits as a soul's journey from darkness to light.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e This is a fresh presentation of a seemingly familiar classic, one that will inspire contemporary audiences to heed the lessons of the ghosts--just as Dickens intended--and be kind to each other this holiday season and all throughout the year.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 104\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.66 x 10.24 x 8.28 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e October 29, 2024\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52026995376429,"sku":"9780789214898","price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0938\/3185\/6429\/files\/a-christmas-carol-being-a-ghost-story-of-christmas-deluxe-illustrated-leatherbound-edition-hardcover-1010853.webp?v=1777423986","url":"https:\/\/ishookbooks.com\/products\/a-christmas-carol-being-a-ghost-story-of-christmas-deluxe-illustrated-leatherbound-edition-hardcover","provider":"iShook Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
