Yet her art isn't all doom and gloom. Bryksenkova's pictures capture the delicate beauty of Christmastime with muted colors interrupted by pops of vivid reds and greens.... It isn't just Bryksenkova's illustrations that lend this version of A Christmas Carol its renewed charm. The use of the text--which alternates vastly in size--to highlight different portions of the story, such as the introduction of Ignorance and Want by the Ghost of Christmas Present, makes certain scenes even more impactful. In fact, the way the text and images intermingle is the best part of this version of A Christmas Carol. - Victorian Homes magazine<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Charles Dickens (1812-1870) is one of the most renowned and beloved novelists of all time. <p/>Yelena Bryksenkova is a painter based in New Haven, Connecticut.
