In the year following the release of \u003ci\u003eA Christmas Carol\u003c\/i\u003e, Dickens released \u003ci\u003eThe Chimes: A Christmas Story of Some Bells That Rang an Old Year Out and a New Year In\u003c\/i\u003e. This story combined his enduring sympathy for the poor with the notion that we must always strive to live in nobler ways. In 1845 came \u003ci\u003eThe Cricket on the Hearth\u003c\/i\u003e, a novella that, in its time, surpassed even \u003ci\u003eA Christmas Carol\u003c\/i\u003e in popularity for stage productions. The years 1846 and 1848 respectively brought \u003ci\u003eThe Battle of Life\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eThe Haunted Man and the Ghost’s Bargain\u003c\/i\u003e. Given this wealth of Christmas-themed works, it is no wonder that Dickens is sometimes referred to as “the man who invented Christmas.”","brand":"Canterbury Classics","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46543040315647,"sku":"9781667208589","price":16.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/Jacket_d0de89f4-5e6b-4a93-8d7c-65c5b0a8f6b1.jpg?v=1774535915","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/de\/products\/9781667208589","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
