Christmas Children Fiction

Les illuminations de la ville n'avaient aucun effet sur Scrooge. Pour le vieil homme, Noël était "un jour où vous vous trouvez plus vieux d'une année et pas plus riche d'une heure". Mais il n'y a que les imbéciles qui ne changent pas d'avis. Et après la visite de plusieurs bons esprits, Scrooge se métamorphosa en apôtre du plus merveilleux jour de l'année : "j'honorerai Noël de tout mon coeur et je m'efforcerai d'en entretenir le culte toute l'année". Retrouvons les personnages du plus célèbre conte de Charles Dickens et la singulière transformation de l'oncle Scrooge.

A holiday classic by Charles Dickens. Originally published in 1843, Dickens worried about the disparity between the wealthy and the impoverished, and it was his attempt to bring this disparity into the light of day, to appeal to the die-hard capitalists to take care of the downtrodden masses. Since this inequity continues, this story is still popular, and will probably continue to be so for the foreseeable future.

Before he knows it, he's got a real-life damsel in distress in the backseat of his car. Princess Marie of Eldovia shouldn't be hailing a cab, or even be out and about.
