'He drew a long sigh of rich content. The old life, with all its
bitterness and useless antagonism and flimsy sophistries, its brief
delights that were always tinged with fear and distrust and
unfaith, that whole miserable, futile, swindled world of Bohemia
seemed immeasurably distant and far away, like a dream that is over
and done.' First published in 1896, The Burglar's Christmas is a
short story by the great American writer Willa Cather. Set in
Chicago on a cold Christmas Eve, the down-and-out Crawford learns
the value of forgiveness. (Part of Renard's Christmas Card Classics
series, 25% of the RRP of each book sold goes to Three Peas, a
small refugee charity. This year, instead of a Christmas card, why
not send a book?)
