#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER โข In this classic tale for modern times, beloved storyteller John Grisham offers a hilarious look at the chaos and frenzy that have become part of our holiday tradition.
The inspiration for the film Christmas with the Kranks, starring Tim Allen and Jamie Lee Curtis
Imagine a year without Christmas. No crowded malls, no corny office parties, no fruitcakes, no unwanted presents. Thatโs just what Luther and Nora Krank have in mind when they decide that, just this once, theyโll skip the holiday altogether.
Theirs will be the only house on Hemlock Street without a rooftop Frosty, they wonโt be hosting their annual Christmas Eve bash, they arenโt even going to have a tree. They wonโt need one, because come December 25 theyโre setting sail on a Caribbean cruise. But as this weary couple is about to discover, skipping Christmas brings enormous consequencesโand isnโt half as easy as theyโd imagined.
