Waterstones Says

Brimming with life and each sharply delineated, Little Women’s titular sisters continue to influence and inspire a century and a half after Louisa May Alcott created them. A compelling family drama set in the shadow of the American Civil War, Little Women is a triumph of characterisation and deft storytelling.

'I'm not afraid of storms, for I'm learning how to sail my ship.'

Meg, Jo, Amy and Beth - four "little women" enduring hardships and enjoying adventures in Civil War New England The charming story of the March sisters, Little Women has been adored by generations. Readers have rooted for Laurie in his pursuit of Jo's hand, cried over little Beth's death, and dreamed of travelling through Europe with old Aunt March and Amy. Future writers have found inspiration in Jo's devotion to her writing. In this simple, enthralling tale, both parts of which are included here, Louisa May Alcott has created four of American literature's most beloved women.

The Penguin English Library - collectable general readers' editions of the best fiction in English, from the eighteenth century to the end of the Second World War.

“Do not over sentimentalise”

You will get even more out of this book if you don’t over sentimentalise it – yes it is true that is beautiful, that it is heart-wrenching in parts (especially as Beth is dying), it has lovely family and sisterly... More

“A classic classic”

This book is my favourite classic. As a child it was the only one I could get into and now I’ve read it at least twenty times. It is rather similar to Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice and Susan Coolidge’s What Katy... More

“little women”

I have loved this book for years, it is tender and always moving, you couldn't ask for a better read. If you eventually loved this, then look for the followups, good wives and Jo's boys, you're sure to...
