Charles DickensCharles Dickens

"The De Behekste Man of de Gesloten Koop is a Christmas story written by Charles Dickens in 1848. It tells the tale of Mr. Redlaw, a chemistry teacher, who is visited by a ghost that grants him the power to rid himself and others of all painful memories and emotions. Translated from the original work, The Haunted Man and the Ghost's Bargain, the story explores themes of redemption and the consequences of suppressing one's past. The book's motto, 'Heer, houd mijn geheugen fris' (Lord, keep my memory fresh), sets the tone for this thought-provoking tale. With the assistance of Marcel Coenders in the introduction, this story offers a unique perspective on the power of memory and its impact on our lives."
