My copy of A Christmas Carol also includes The Chimes, The Cricket on the Hearth, The Battle of Life, and The Haunted Man. The preface by the author, which is just a couple of sentences, intends that these are all stories for "the season" or Christmas. Three of the other stories include visits by ghostly spirits who help people discover the importance of altruism, home, and family, in a similar vein to A Christmas Carol. And the one story that does not include a spirit, has similar themes. It is a repetitive short story collection- I believe there is a reason that A Christmas Carol is the only one that we've ever heard of before, nevertheless it is a charming collection of vaguely gothic Christmas stories for those who enjoy Charlies Dicken's writing. ( ) The idea of actually reading a story as omnipresent as A Christmas Carol always seemed a bit redundant to me. The story and its characters have infused Western Culture to such an extent that they’ve become archetypes, and the plot a formula. But this year I picked up a Penguin Classics edition of Dickens Christmas stories at a thrift store and so it found its way onto my shelf. I’ve been meaning to get around to reading some Dickens for a few years now; like this story, I sort of assumed that there was nothing for me to learn from an author that already seemed to have sublimated into the culture. As I’ve gotten older, I’ve learned that classics are classics for a reason, and are often much stranger and more interesting than their offshoots would lead you to believe. The most striking thing about this story is how scary it is. The ghosts are described in an almost psychedelic, hallucinatory way, and at the introduction of each subsequent phantom I was amazed at the vividness of Dickens’ . It speaks to the paucity of the modern imagination that is seems incredible he could fashion such imagery with only words, and without having seen the fruits of art and technology that have made the kind of thing he is describing cheap and common with the advent of film and computer generated imagery. I’m also struck by the presence of Death stalking all of these pages. Adaptations focus on Scrooge’s redemption arc, but they often leave out what is the most disturbing revelation he has on his journey, and which Dickens is reminding us all of: we will all die. Scrooge’s greed and stinginess is merely a symptom of a denial of death, a hoarding of worldly good at the expense of what is truly precious in life.
