Mr. Dickens and his carol / Samantha Silva.

Silva, Samantha, (author.).

Summary:

When his newest book is an utter flop, Charles Dickens' publishers offer an ultimatum: either he writes a Christmas book in a month, or they will call in his debts, and he could lose everything. On one of his long walks, he meets a young woman who might be just the muse he needs. Over the next few weeks, Eleanor Lovejoy propels Dickens on a Scrooge-like journey that tests everything he believes about generosity, friendship, ambition - and Christmas. Laced with humour, rich historical detail from Dickens' life, and clever winks to his work, this is an irresistible new take on an adored classic.
