ABOUT THE BOOK AND AUTHOR The Chimes (or its much longer title The Chimes: A Goblin Story of Some Bells that Rang an Old Year Out and a New Year In) was written by Charles Dickens (1812-1870) and was first published in 1844. It is the third of five Christmas novellas by Charles Dickens. The five novellas are A Christmas Carol (1843), The Chimes (1844), The Cricket on the Hearth (1845), The Battle of Life (1846) and The Haunted Man and the Ghost's Bargain (1848). In The Chimes, Trotty Veck is a poor ticket-porter who has lost his faith in humanity and wonders if people are wicket by nature. On New Year's Eve, spirits visit him to show that people are not born evil and they help restore his faith.
