John Collier BACK FOR CHRISTMAS Interpretation The story “Back for Christmas” was written by a highly skilled modern English writer John Collier (3 May 1901 – 6 April 1980). His stories may be broadly classified as fantasies‚ but are really sui generis. They feature an acerbic wit and are usually ironic or dark in tone.
