A Christmas Carol: What if Scrooge were a woman?

A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens, Freely Adapted by Alison Larkin Following her recent adaptation of Great Expectations, bestselling novelist and award-winning audiobook narrator Alison Larkin changes the gender of Scrooge in this ground breaking new version of A Christmas Carol. It's the same beloved Christmas story - only one thing has changed. In this version, Scrooge is a woman. Everything else is written as Dickens wrote it - so the characters around Scrooge behave as if it were quite normal for a woman to read and write, fall in love with a woman and have the kind of career only men could dream of. It's an irresistible question. If gender had been simply irrelevant in the 19th century where would we all be now?
