Description
Rock Crystal: A Christmas Tale ✨ 14 Point Font for Eye Comfort
by Adalbert Stifter
With Reflections by Andrea Guadalupe Gonzales
Some stories only grow more radiant with time. First published in 1845, Adalbert Stifter’s Rock Crystal (Bergkristall) has long been cherished as a quiet masterpiece of 19th-century literature.
On Christmas Eve, two children set out from their mountain village and lose their way in the snow. Their simple journey becomes a story of survival, but also a meditation on nature’s beauty, the resilience of the human spirit, and the mystery of God’s providence.
This edition draws from the classic 1914 translation by Lee M. Hollander, now in the public domain. Readers will encounter Stifter’s lyrical descriptions of the Bohemian Forest — long sentences, careful observations, and a slower rhythm that invites you to read as if walking through deep snow.
At the close of the tale, you will also find new reflections by Andrea Gonzales, inspired by her own family’s roots in Bohemia. These pages bridge past and present, carrying Stifter’s vision into a modern heart.
