A Christmas Carol for Grown-Ups and Other Stories Tony Jordan

The ghost of Christmas present visits three estranged friends. The littlest angel shows a writer what Christmas really means. An almost empty pickle jar, a dying father and a family ethic motivate a young man. A cold December rain is held at bay by the sheltering warmth of a family. A young couple discovers a gift that keeps on giving; and a dog remembers Christmases past and hopes for Christmases future. These are adult stories of Christmas. Hope, Joy, Love, and Friendship swirled together in a wassail bowl as a potion against the bone-chilling cold of winter, and the soul-chilling despair of being alone. Come drink the warmth of the magical draft and recapture that feeling of a contented Christmas.
