Abstract: Charles Dickens is one of the greatest novelists of his era as his works, echo the socio-political and economic scenario of his times, that witnessed Industrial Revolution, child labor, hazardous factory life, to name a few. His complex and vivid storytelling has left a significant and remarkable mark on literature. Some of his works include A Christmas Carol, David Copperfield, Bleak House, A Tale of Two Cities, and Our Mutual Friend. The novel A Christmas Carol deals with amelioration of Ebenezer Scrooge, a cold-hearted businessman into a man of values with the help of three phantoms during Christmas by taking him on a roller coaster ride of his past and his future if he were to change over a new leaf. The novella is didactic exhibiting valuable lessons for Gen-Z, walloped in technology and moving far from family and value systems.
