So begins Charles Dickens his story about the grumpy, greedy and spoiled Ebenezer Scrooge who built up his wealth with an icy heart. The approach of Christmas Eve disturbs him the most as people in general become far too nice and emotional. Also, his bookkeeper demands time off. This annoying Christmas Eve also becomes his turning point.
Sven Wollter reads this classic Christmas story that has fascinated, frightened and warmed readers, listeners and viewers for more than a hundred years.
