The Guest by Charles Dickens - Full Audiobook | Short Story

A full unabridged audiobook of the classic short story, "The Guest", by Charles Dickens - complete with sounds and visuals. As a gentleman heads northward to Yorkshire from London, a severe snowstorm sees his coach stuck outside The Holly-Tree Inn. With no other option available, he spends the night but soon finds himself snowed inn. To pass the time he reminisces about inns he has visited on his previous travels, before coming up with an ingenious plan - to visit all members of the household and staff and derive what tales he can with from them, writing them all down in this collection. The The Holly-Tree Inn is a collection of short stories, published as the second volume of A Child's History of England and Miscellaneous Pieces. The Holly-Tree Inn was originally published in the Christmas 1855 edition of Household Words. There is some evidence that Dickens only wrote three of the sections and the framing story; the other sections are purportedly attributed as follows: "The Ostler", Wilkie Collins; "The Landlord", William Howitt; "The Barmaid" Adelaide Anne Procter; "The Poor Pensioner", Holme Lee. Dickens began a tradition of Christmas publications with "A Christmas Carol" in 1843 and his Christmas stories soon became a national institution.
