Dancing Dan's Christmas cover

First published in 1938, Dancing Dan’s Christmas is a witty and evocative tale set in Depression-era New York City.


Several friends come together on Christmas Eve and soothe their souls with some bootleg spirits, and in the cloudy evening that ensues they make someone’s Christmas dream come true.


Part of Renard’s Christmas Card Classics series, proceeds go to Three Peas. This year, instead of a Christmas card, why not send a book?

'A Depression-era New York newspaperman who wrote, I think, some of the funniest short stories ever published.' -- Sam Leith * Guardian *
