Cuento de navidad

Overview

El señor Scrooge es un hombre avaro, tacaño y solitario, que no celebra la Navidad, y solo piensa en ganar dinero. Una víspera de Navidad, Scrooge recibe la visita del fantasma de su antiguo socio, muerto años atrás. Este le cuenta que, por haber sido avaro en vida, toda su maldad se ha convertido en una larga y pesada cadena que debe arrastrar por toda la eternidad. Le anuncia que a él le espera un destino aún peor, y le avisa de que tendrá una última oportunidad de cambiar cuando reciba la visita de los tres espíritus de la Navidad.

About the Author

Charles Dickens (1812-1870) is probably the greatest novelist England has ever produced, the author of such famous books as A Christmas Carol, Hard Times, Great Expectations, David Copperfield, and Oliver Twist. His innate comic genius and shrewd depictions of Victorian life — along with his indelible characters — have made his books beloved by readers the world over. Dickens was born in Landport, Portsea, England and died in Kent after suffering a stroke. The second of eight children of a family continually plagued by debt, the young Dickens came to know hunger, privation, and the horrors of the infamous debtors' prison and the evils of child labor. These unfortunate early life experiences helped shape many of his greatest works.
