Charles Dickens 
A Christmas Carol 

With no introduction needed for the iconic and one of the most loved authors, Dickens; the book comes as a realization of one’s own deeds that are done in ignorance, ambition, anger or outright selfishness. It is through the catharsis of the main character, Scrooge , that the plot of the story takes one through their own path of retrospection and think about rectifying the same while they still have a chance. So often it has been witnessed that life makes one bitter and one keeps justifying the same, but there is always better a way that leads to peace and salvation of the spirit. A must-read for those who understand or wish to seek the deeper meaning of life.
