Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book tells the story of Wallace Miller, a young man who has grown weary of the superficiality of life in New York City. Seeking a more authentic experience, he journeys to the small village of North Topsville, Massachusetts, hoping to rediscover the joy of Christmas and escape the loneliness of his bachelor existence. The author cleverly blends humor and pathos as Wallace, initially a cynical member of the "To-Hell-with-the-Merry-Yule-Tide Association," finds himself drawn into the simple pleasures of a traditional New England Christmas. Through his interactions with local children, particularly young Albert Andrew Goodwin, and a charming, independent woman named Nora Woodford, Wallace experiences a gradual transformation, shedding his jaded outlook and rediscovering the warmth of human connection. The book explores themes of alienation, nostalgia, and the search for meaning in a rapidly changing world. It offers a poignant reflection on the enduring power of childhood memories, the importance of community, and the restorative nature of genuine human connection. The author's vivid descriptions of the rural landscape, the warmth of the New England winter, and the simple joys of a small town Christmas create a charming and nostalgic atmosphere, reminding us of the enduring power of the human spirit to find solace and happiness in unexpected places. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9780259792352_0
