One of our major commitments is bringing new and diverse audio experiences to our members, so this year, as our gift to you, we pulled together a collection that reflects a little bit of everything we&rsquo;ve been up to recently: a surprising and heartwarming documentary, a selection of stories from our partners around the world, and even some improvised comedic carols we hope will make you laugh as much as they did us.</p>https://paapereira.xyz/books/the-chimes/Fri, 01 Jan 2016 23:50:00 +0000https://paapereira.xyz/books/the-chimes/<h3 id="the-chimes-by-charles-dickens-1844">The Chimes by Charles Dickens (1844)</h3> <p><img src="https://paapereira.xyz/reads/the-chimes.jpg" alt="cover"></p> <ul> <li>Author: <a href="https://paapereira.xyz/book-authors/charles-dickens">Charles Dickens</a></li> <li>First Published: <a href="https://paapereira.xyz/book-publication-year/1800s">1844</a></li> <li>Score: <a href="https://paapereira.xyz/book-scores/3/10-books">3/10</a></li> </ul> <blockquote> <p><a href="https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/28184546-the-chimes">Goodreads</a></p> <p>This classic story is the second in a series of five Christmas books Dickens was commissioned to write - beginning with A Christmas Carol. A haunting tale set on New Year&rsquo;s Eve, The Chimes tells the story of a poor porter named Trotty Veck who has become disheartened by the state of the world - until he is shown a series of fantastical visions that convince him of the good of humanity. Though much different from and certainly a bit darker than A Christmas Carol, the moral message of The Chimes is equally poignant - touting the importance of compassion, goodwill, and the love of friends and family.</p>
