DICKENS Charles.
The Haunted Man and the Ghost's Bargain.
London: Bradbury & Evans 1848. Octavo. Original red cloth titles and decoration to spine and front cover in gilt elaborate frame stamped in blind to covers later yellow endpapers gilt edges. Frontispiece engraved title page and 15 illustrations in the text. Very light rubbing to binding extremities; some peripheral creasing to contents crease to pp. 5/6 title page loosening a little at foot. A very good bright copy. First edition. The Haunted Man is the fifth and final Christmas book by Dickens. "As soon as he returned from Broadstairs to London he started work on the Christmas Book he had for so long been contemplating a book about lost time. The Haunted Man and the Ghost's Bargain is concerned with the power of memory with family life which is destroyed and replaced only by the wretched anxieties of a distinguished but solitary man. the theme itself revolves around Dickens's belief that memory is a softening and chastening power that the recollections of old sufferings and old wrongs can be used to touch the heart and elicit sympathy with the sufferings of others. It has been said that in this autobiographical fragment Dickens is only suppressing his feelings of hurt and jealous rage but it seems more likely that he was actively involved after Fanny's death in the process of transcending them" Ackroyd p. 553. Eckel p. 124; Smith II 9 pp. 68-70. Peter Ackroyd Dickens 1990. London: Bradbury & Evans, hardcover
