📗 Libro en inglés LITTLE WOMEN (OXFORD WORLD S CLASSICS)

This classic story of the March family women and their lives in New England during the Civil War has remained enduringly popular since its publication in 1868. Poor, argumentative, loving, and optimistic, the March sisters struggle to supplement their family''s meager income and realize their own dreams. This highly autobiographical novel shows us women who are strong-minded and independent in their determination to control their own destiny. The introduction to this edition provides a fascinating history of the Alcotts, and a biographical history of Louisa Alcott''s own struggles as a writer. ''this children''s novel for all ages is vivid from the very first sentence. ... a children''s classic ... lovers of the book will find Valerie Alderson''s informed and enthusiastic introduction a valuable bonus, especially about the closely autobiographical nature of the book.''
