Short summary
What's it about?
The book “Christ Legends and other stories” starts with the only realistic short story in the whole book that is named “Holy night”. The story starts with a storyteller in the first person and the author opens up with her memory of her grandmother that died when she was 5. The grandma used to tell her stories and one of them was carved into the memory of the author. That is the reason why Selma wanted to share this beautiful story with everyone.
