Good Wives takes off about three years after where Little Women
left off. Meg is about to get married, Jo is attempting to launch a
literary career, Beth has sadly never recovered from her scarlet fever
and is now virtually housebound, and little Amy is maturing fast, and
about to go off travelling with a wealthy aunt.
Each girl is struggling with her own problems; for Meg, she must learn
to be a good wife and mother, and juggle the demands of the two; Jo must
learn how to maintain her morals in a corrupt business, and rein in her
headstrong and often selfish nature; Beth has to come to terms with the
fact that she may never grow old, and learn to enjoy the time she has
left without dwelling on what may come, and Amy must learn to put others
first, and understand that money and fine things
are nothing in comparison to a good heart and unconditional love.
