The Allusionist reads A Christmas Carol. Stave 4: The Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come, and Stave 5: Christmas Day

Join the Allusionist over on YouTube.com/allusionistshow for the last of four livestreams of the "redistribute the wealth! You can't take it with you!" fable for our times: A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens.

Helen Zaltzman reads (aloud - you won't just have to watch her quietly turning pages) with music and visuals by Martin Austwick.

If you want to read along with your own copy of the book, do! This fourth stream will be Staves 4 and 5 of the book. In Stave 4, Scrooge is visited by the ghost of Christmas Yet to Come, and gives him some pretty scary life spoilers! Unless... Scrooge becomes a changed man? Tune into Stave 5 to find out!!

This and all the other livestreams in the Christmas Carollusionist series will be available afterwards for not-live viewing at youtube.com/allusionistshow.

There's also a great Allusionist episode, How The Dickens Stole Christmas, about why Christmas is so Dickens-y, hear/read it at theallusionist.org/dickens-christmas.
