About this listen

 Tiny Tim, Bob Cratchit, and Ebenezer Scrooge come to marvelous life in Patrick Stewart's critically-acclaimed solo interpretation of A Christmas Carol. The star of X-Men and The Royal Shakespeare Company, Stewart has performed his one-man stage production of this holiday classic to sell-out audiences. Now, in this Grammy-nominated studio recording of the dazzling achievement that has thrilled audiences in New York and Los Angeles, Stewart invites listeners to rediscover the timeless story at its source: Dickens' own words, presented in a soaring, virtuoso solo performance in which Stewart plays all parts.©1991 Camm Lane, Inc (P)2006 Simon and Schuster, Inc.

What the critics say

"Reciting the litany of Scrooge's scrooginess, Stewart relishes the emotional gamut of meanness....Humbug seldom sounds so good." (Newsweek)
"Not only is Patrick Stewart wonderful, but this is surely one of the best performances of A Christmas Carol ever recorded....By sheer energy and dramatic skill, Stewart invests this story with not merely life, but freshness, excitement, and wonder." (The Washington Post)
"A low tech audio Christmas card: no sound effects, no gimmicks, just one of the the great voices of the contemporary classical stage creating as vivid a cast of characters as Dickens imagines. The Royal Shakespeare Company veteran...doesn't so much read the story as inhabit it with infectious delight." (Entertainment Weekly)

I LOVE Patrick Stewert's rendition of Scrooge. His voice is so good for this novel. I purchased this to allow my child follow the audio with the book but it jumps around and skips a lot.

Does not follow the book very well

I have read this book many times before and I liked it. Hearing it performed by Patrick Stewart was an entirely different experience. he adds so much character to the story. He does all the different voices and takes this beautiful book to a whole new level. If you are considering buying this version, do not hesitate. You will not be disappointed at all!

INCREDIBLE!!!

Short and sweet! Patrick Stewart gets right into the story, doing all the voices and accents. It is clear he is a fan and puts all his love for Dickens into this performance.
If you are a Scrooge and don’t like this fun, not-just-for-Christmas audiobook, all I can say to you is “Good Afternoon!”

Christmas Classic by One of the Best
