Felix Marschner from Wurzeldorf, the district school supervisor Richter, a poor Slovakian tinkerer, the baker Ferdl from Reichenberg, and the adventures they have on their way to the stable of Bethlehem: this is told in six Christmas tales, in a way that is humorous and at the same time thought-provoking.
