The stories in this collection are all about Christmas, but that does not mean that they are all happy and tranquil. Sincere and romantic ones like O. Henry’s meet the mysterious tales of Chesterton and Conan Doyle. A malevolent and nihilist gravedigger receives absolution from the most unlikely of creatures, while a poor shoemaker that has renounced God begins to look for His presence through his small window. Of course, it would not be a complete collection without everyone's seasonal favourite – Charles Dickens’ "A Christmas Carol", which combes bitterness, love, forgiveness, and goodness into one magical story. A heartfelt and haunting collection that everyone will enjoy.
