| Summary | "A Reversible Santa Claus" by Meredith Nicholson is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around the character known as The Hopper, a reformed crook who finds himself in extraordinary circumstances as he tries to lead an honest life after a life of crime. As Christmas Eve unfolds, he unexpectedly becomes involved in a child abduction scenario and, through a series of comical and precarious events, grapples with the morality of his choices, aiming for redemption during the holiday season. At the start of the book, we meet Mr. William B. Aikins, also known as The Hopper, who is hiding from the law and reflecting on his recent petty crimes as he contemplates stealing a car. Just as he embarks on this path, he inadvertently finds himself with a young child, nicknamed Shaver, who has mysteriously ended up in the stolen roadster he is driving. This sets off a chain of events where The Hopper must reconcile his criminal instincts with his desire for redemption as he navigates the complexities of returning the child to his parents while evading the law himself. The beginning establishes a whimsical tone, blending aspects of comedy, mischief, and moral inquiry during the holiday season. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
