百年來最受歡迎的聖誕故事
狄更斯200週年誕辰紀念版
聖誕將至,不分男女老幼,貧富貴賤,
人人忙碌奔走,預備過個好節。
這時,歡愉的倫敦城中只有一個人不高興,
守財奴施顧己正為了因過節少賺的錢憤懣不已。
這部一八四三年聖誕節發行的小說,
在百餘年後的今天,已成為最受歡迎的聖誕故事。
不但至今長銷不輟,更有不計其數的改編電影、電視劇、舞台劇等多種版本。
本書採用備受讚譽的麥可.赫恩(Michael Hearne)註解版作為翻譯底本
除附加詳盡註釋,並有譯者鄭永孝教授針對此書創作背景作專文導讀。
以期讓讀者重溫這個經典故事的同時,亦能對其時空背景有更深入的理解。
本書中譯本<<聖誕歌聲>>由聯經出版公司出版
