A CHRISTMAS CAROL IN PROSE
BEING
A Ghost Story of Christmas
by Charles Dickens
PREFACE
I HAVE endeavoured in this Ghostly little book,
to raise the Ghost of an Idea, which shall not put my
readers out of humour with themselves, with each other,
with the season, or with me. May it haunt their houses
pleasantly, and no one wish to lay it.
Their faithful Friend and Servant,
C.D.
December, 1843.
This post is of Patrick Stewart's acclaimed one-man performance of A CHRISTMAS CAROL, as released in 1991.

Kwork,
One might call me strange, many have, for this interpretation. When I first heard it I envisioned him on the Holodeck of the Enterprise Performing this for Dickens. My fantasy life is quite active when I listen LOL--Rick
It is a WONDERFUL production. I had the chance to see it live in NYC 15 years or so but went to the opera instead. It was a lovely evening, but I'm still kicking myself about missing the Patrick Stewart. I listen to this every year, if possible ON Xmas eve.

You must have read my mind. I love the Christmas Carol and have several versions. I've been looking for this particular one with Patrick Stewart.
