Louisa May Alcott's iconic novel-the beloved portrait of a
nineteenth-century New England family in wartime
The classic story of the March family, Little Women has been adored
for generations. Now in a vibrant new deluxe edition with an
introduction by Jane Smiley and a cover by Julie Doucet, the novel
follows the lives of four sisters-tomboyish Jo, beautiful Meg, fragile
Beth, and romantic Amy-as they come of age while their father is
fighting in the Civil War. Since 1868, readers have rooted for Laurie in
his pursuit of Jo's hand, cried over the family's tragedy, and dreamed
of traveling through Europe with old Aunt March and Amy. In this simple,
enthralling tale, Louisa May Alcott has created four of American
literature's most beloved women.
