About this listen

In The Chimes, Charles Dickens offers a haunting and redemptive New Year’s tale that strikes at the heart of Victorian society’s neglect of the poor. Toby “Trotty” Veck, a humble ticket-porter beset by poverty and self-doubt, finds himself disillusioned with a world that seems to deem people like him worthless. But when the tolling of ancient church bells guides him into a strange and supernatural realm, Trotty is granted a powerful vision of what could be—if compassion and faith are rekindled.

This emotionally charged novella, narrated with warmth and gravity by Stuart Bentley, explores the themes of social justice, the dignity of the working class, and the hope of personal and societal transformation. Both ghostly and uplifting, The Chimes is a deeply moral tale wrapped in Dickens’ signature gothic atmosphere, ideal for fans of A Christmas Carol and those seeking timeless stories of conscience and redemption.
