Mrs. Lirriper's Lodgings

After her alcoholic husband dies in an accident Mrs. Lirriper starts taking in lodgers to make ends meet. A wide cast of delightful characters breathe new life into the house, but not everything runs smoothly. And some leave behind more than Mrs. Lirriper bargained for. Mrs. Lirriper's Lodgings is a kind and sweet story; a light read that will satisfy any reader with a taste for the classics. Though not set during Christmas like A Christmas Carol (1843) before it, it is considered a holiday story and first appeared it the extra Christmas edition of the All The Year Round literary magazine.
