Synopsis

Novel adalah salah satu jenis karya sastra yang berbentuk prosa. Kisah di dalam novel merupakan hasil karya imajinasi yang membahas tentang permasalahan kehidupan seseorang atau berbagai tokoh. Manfaat membaca novel selain untuk hiburan, kita akan mendapat pengetahuan umum dan melihat suatu fenomena sosial, ekonomi, politik, dan lainnya dalam sudut pandang yang berbeda, sudut pandang dari penulis atau pun tokoh tertentu dalam novel. Narasi ceritanya akan mengajak para pembaca untuk mencoba memahami situasi serta menarik kesimpulan atas suatu permasalahan yang terjadi. Salah satu, judul novel klasik yang banyak disukai oleh banyak orang adalah "Wordsworth: Christmas Carol". Christmas Carol merupakan novela yang dikarang oleh Charles Dickens. Edisi pertama novela ini diterbitkan oleh Chapman & Hall di London dan diilustrasikan oleh John Leech. A Christmas Carol mengisahkan cerita mengenai Ebenezer Scroooge, seorang kikir yang dikunjungi oleh hantu dari mantan mitra bisnisnya, Jacob Marley, dan roh-roh Hantu Natal Masa Lalu, Hantu Natal Masa Sekarang dan Hantu Natal Akan Datang. Setelah dikunjungi hantu tersebut, Ebenezer berubah menjadi orang yang baik dan lemah lembut. Charles menulis A Christmas Carlos selama periode ketika Inggris mempelajari dan meninjau ulang tradisi Natal masa lalu, termasuk kidung Natal dan kebiasaan baru seperti pohon Natal. Charles terilhami oleh pengalaman masa mudanya dan cerita tentang Natal karya penulis lain termasuk Washington Irving dan Douglas Jerrold. Charles telah menulis tiga cerita Natal sebelum menulis novela ini dan terilhami selepas lawatan ke Sekolah Field Lane, satu di antara beberapa tempat yang dibangun bagi anak-anak jalanan di London. Penanganan terhadap orang miskin dan kemampuan orang yang egois untuk menebus dirinya dengan berubah menjadi karakter yang lebih bersimpati adalah tema utama cerita ini. Terdapat diskusi antara akademisi mengenai wujud cerita ini; sebuah pendapat menilai cerita ini bersifat duniawi, sedangkan pendapat lainnya menilai cerita ini merupakan alegori Kristen. Yuk segera dapatkan bukunya di Gramedia! Sinopsis Ebenezer Scrooge is a miserly old skinflint. He hates everyone, especially children. But at Christmas three ghosts come to visit him, scare him into mending his ways, and he finds, as he celebrates with Bob Cratchit, Tiny Tim and their family, that geniality brings its own reward. This finest of all Christmas stories is beautifully illustrated with Arthur Rackham's superb line drawings.
