Little Women

Amy, the most frivolous; Beth, the most tender; Jo, the most impulsive (and the most loved); Meg, the wisest. These four sisters in the America of Civil War hardly have time to be children and then girls, given how high the expectations are for them. They must be patient, persevering, and hard-working, according to the wishes of their father – who is busy fighting at the front – and their mother. Overcoming their flaws and practicing virtue is their daily task. But fortunately, the chaos of life disrupts the rhythm of this exhausting routine: tantrums, fights, ambitions, dances and sweets, stained or lost gloves, domestic rats and ink stains, experiments in the kitchen, jealousy, love. Louisa May Alcott has given countless generations an unforgettable story.
