The Faber Book of Christmas

A joyful yuletide anthology cloth-bound in exquisite Liberty Fabric.

If the most wonderful time of year is enough to plunge you into a gloom, look no further. This collection of spirited stories and vibrant poetry will brighten your mood as it brings together Charles Dickens and Philip Larkin, W.H.Auden and Wendy Cope, Jilly Cooper, and Dylan Thomas. From tales of carolling and snatched mistletoe kisses to "The Worst Christmas Dinner, Ever", there's something here to amuse and interest Christmas lovers, grinches, and everyone in between. Starred review
Judge this book by its attention-grabbing Liberty of London cover with the bright colors and festive design; the stories inside will be pretty close to that cheery feel, with pieces ranging from classic to contemporary, funny to sentimental, short to long, and from prose to poem to hymn. Easy to pick up briefly and return to later, this book cold solve some holiday angst for dedicated readers who don't have much spare time." Library Journal
