Book summaryEvans wrote this Christmas tale for his two daughters, composing a story about a family very much like his own. They move into the home of an elderly widow and discover a long-lost hoard of letters written by the woman to her daughter, who died in infancy. Media reviews"Here, gentle reader, we meet almost every creaky plot element in Victorian fiction. But this tale of a young family that moves in with an elderly widow and discovers 'the true meaning of Christmas' is no dusty novel from the last century...'The Christmas Box' is currently number two on the New York Times best-seller list...Evans will never rival Dickens's literary talents, but he bests him in marketing genius." |
