Cricket on the Hearth is Dickens at his most sentimental and eccentric - a cosy little Christmas novella packed with misunderstandings, disguises, and spirits that aren’t quite ghosts. This TritonLit edition makes the story clear without flattening its charm. Each chapter includes sharp ‘What’s Just Happened’ summaries, quick ‘Context Snacks’, and focused guidance on themes, symbolism, and Dickens’s social ideas.
Whether you’re returning to Dickens or discovering this one for the first time, this edition keeps everything simple, warm, and wonderfully readable - perfect for the season.
