Book excerpt: The 2020 Holiday Season might have been cancelled by this year's super-villain, Covid-19, but fear not! Good cheer is at hand in this hilarious, satirical retelling of one of the season's most loved stories: A Covid Christmas Carol. Mr. Anatole Gasper and Dickens' Scrooge have a lot in common: Both their business partners are dead; both are curmudgeonly, solitary and mean; and both get their wake-up call in a series of wild, haunted dreams on Christmas Eve. For Gasper-as the year is 2020-these dreams include a huge, orange, Covid-spreading turkey that tweets, a doddering phantom riding a decrepit blue donkey without direction, and Santa, of course, whose red-nosed reindeers for once shed an unwelcome light over the festivities. There's nothing more heartening than seeing a dyed-in-the-wool grouch change into a merry, old soul, and Gasper's ghostly dreams promise to do just that. So, while this Holiday Season might be like no other, spend an hour in the company of this modern Scrooge and let the festive cheer flow!
