• A Christmas Carol - Experience the transformation of Ebenezer Scrooge, a miserly man who learns the value of compassion and generosity through spectral encounters on Christmas Eve.
• Hard Times - A profound critique of industrialisation, this novel explores the impact of a utilitarian society on the lives of its characters, revealing the stark contrast between wealth and poverty.
• A Tale of Two Cities - Set against the backdrop of the French Revolution, this tale of sacrifice and redemption examines the themes of resurrection and the struggle for justice.
