A Christmas Carol
Die-cut slipcase featuring vignettes inspired by Victorian wallpaper
Printed in full colour throughout
Hand-drawn wreath on the title page
5 full-colour double-page spreads at the beginning of each stave (chapter)
2 additional illustrations per chapter
This delightful illustrated edition of Dickens’s beloved tale is presented in a slipcase that resembles Victorian wallpaper, with a cover featuring Ebenezer Scrooge standing amid snow-frosted chimneys and the glow of gaslit houses. Inside, the endpapers depict a London street at two different moments: the still, expectant night of Christmas Eve and the bright, hopeful morning of Christmas Day. Artist Sarah Coomer’s colourful scenes and charming vignettes are sprinkled throughout the pages.

Charles Dickens was born in 1812 in Landport, England. His family moved to London in 1816, and then to Chatham in 1817, where Dickens spent the happiest years of his childhood. They returned to London in 1822, and two years later Dickens’s father was imprisoned for debt. Dickens was sent to work in a shoe-polish factory – a period that would come to influence much of his later writing. In 1833 he began contributing stories and essays to newspapers and magazines, and The Pickwick Papers, his first commercial success, was serialised in 1836. He went on to complete 15 novels – including Oliver Twist (1838), A Tale of Two Cities (1859) and Great Expectations (1861; Folio 2017) – all now considered classics of English literature, and became a celebrity in America as well as in Britain. He also established, edited and regularly contributed to the journals Household Words (1850–9) and All the Year Round (1859–70). Dickens died in 1870; he is buried in Westminster Abbey.
