Description
The true meaning of Christmas may perhaps have been lost. If there were ways to revive it, one would be Mary Anderson's short anthology. These stories, beautifully told, remind us that Christmas is a coming-together, a time when people find they can care for one another, sometimes in most surprising circumstances. Beginning with the King James version of St. Luke's telling of the Nativity, we are taken through two tales of suffering - and discovery - to the great classics of Dickens, Walcott, Moor and Longfellow. A delightful read. Better still, to be read aloud.
