The story of the Nativity of the Savior is not just an ancient wonderful tale. This story takes place in eternity, never ends, but always continues. A story with a thousand faces. The anthology Christmas Classics presents the Ukrainian faces of this thousand. It collects Christmas prose, primarily Christmas and Christmas Eve stories, written at different times by different people - men and women with different destinies and worldviews, with different creative intentions, who lived a hundred years ago and live next to us. Therefore, these works are very different: sad and cheerful, pious and secular, realistic and phantasmagoric, instructive and entertaining, philosophical, psychological, purely aesthetic... All together they tell about Christmas - our Christmas. An eternal story about the birth of light and its victory over darkness.
