Something has happened to Christmas, Bennett announces, or to our hearts, or to both. Comparing the breathless anticipation of childhood Christmases with the jaded festival of his own day, he looks at the solstice, the old faith and the surviving spirit of goodwill, and offers practical advice on turning the season into a true feast of friendship.

A short, sensible and warm-hearted essay from the author of The Old Wives’ Tale, ideal holiday reading. Download the free EPUB.
