Product details

One of Charles Dickens' famous Christmas tales is "The Chimes." Like "A Christmas Carol," it is a ghost story with a Christmas theme. It seems that Dickens set out to showcase the imperfections of this world in the most emphatic way possible, so that the world might improve, using all means at his disposal, including those of the supernatural. In "A Christmas Carol," the focus is on the personification of heartlessness, embodied by the miser Scrooge, who transforms into a kind and helpful person on Christmas Eve. In "The Chimes," the story revolves around the poor, whose misery does not touch the hearts of the wealthy. Similarly, the worker Toby Veck and his daughter Meg lead an exceedingly harsh, that is to say, hungry life. He refers to the church bells high up in the tower as his friends; they can be heard ringing.
