Happy Holidays! This year, we're revisting our first ever Christmas Episode from 2021.
We are reading the timeless festive poem A Visit From Saint Nicholas, more commonly known as 'Twas The Night Before Christmas, and comparing it with a short story based on the classic narrative, by James Thurber. Curl up with a cup of mulled wine and enjoy our musings on Santa Claus, sugarplums and the demise of the kerchief.
Link to Stories:
- A Visit from Saint Nicholas by Clement Clarke Moore (or by Henry Livingston Junior)
- A Visit from Saint Nicholas (In the Ernest Hemingway Manner) by James Thurber
- Further Reading: ‘Twas the night before Christmas’ helped make the modern Santa – and led to a literary whodunit
