B. J. Harrison Reads A Christmas Tree and a Wedding

The narrator in the story has just came back from a wedding, but he wants to take us to a Christmas party that he was at several years ago and where he witnessed how big of a difference there is between the social classes. He saw how the rich people's children received expensive gifts while one poor boy, the son of the governess, received only a book without covers. The narrator observed something else too: children do not build relationships based on wealth. They are pure and free from prejudices - until the society changes them. Do you want to know what the connection is between this Christmas party and the wedding? Between one rich girl and one poor boy? "A Christmas Tree and a Wedding" by Fyodor Dostoevsky holds the answers.
