Title Description
Since its 1868 publication, this has been one of the most beloved works of American fiction. Alcott's novel follows the coming of age of four sisters, under their mother's care while their father serves as a chaplain in the Union Army during the Civil War. This is above all a book of characters: the lovely and sensible eldest sister Meg, the tomboy aspiring writer Jo, the fragile Beth, and the almost-spoiled Amy. Inventive rather than wealthy, the girls delight us with their creative Christmas presents in a time of penury, their secret club with its riotous newspaper, and the friendships they forge with their neighbors, and we grieve with them when tragedy strikes them. Alcott has imagined a family whose caring and pluck makes us love them back.
