"Piccole donne" è un capolavoro della letteratura giovanile scritto nel 1868 da Louisa May Alcott e tradotto in tutto il mondo. Le protagoniste sono le quattro giovani sorelle March, Meg, Jo, Beth ed Amy, la loro famiglia e i Laurence, i vicini di casa. Radicate a saldi principi morali, sostenute da un grande sentimento religioso, da un profondo senso di dignità e dalla fede nel lavoro, le quattro sorelle affrontano le difficoltà e le gioie che la vita mette loro davanti.

Quarto della serie di "Piccole donne", troviamo qui tutti i protagonisti di "Piccoli uomini" dopo dieci anni, alle prese con la vita reale, i primi amori e gli impegni di lavoro, le tentazioni e le decisioni sui propri progetti di vita. E l'autrice ci fa dire, dalla bocca di Jo, diventata scrittrice di successo che questo sarà l'ultimo sequel che scrive per accontentare i suoi giovani lettori, avidi di storie. Purtroppo per noi, che con rimpianto concluderemo queste semplici storie di vita in cui le avventure del cuore sono più emozionanti dei combattimenti di cappa e spada.

Written in classic Alcott style, we see how the boys struggle to overcome their many flaws, in the end learning life's lessons the hard way. Just as the March girls did, each boy must learn to deal with death, love, heartbreak, and the consequences of their actions. Audiences will feel pain and joy alongside each young man as he completes his life journey and fulfills his dreams in this classic conclusion to one of America's most beloved series.

Good Wives continues the story of the Little Women, the March sisters Meg, Jo, Beth and Amy, as they approach womanhood. Meg longs to begin her new life with John Brook, though they can never be rich; Jo returns to devote herself to literature, and to Beth, whose illness has left her weak but whose serenity shines through the household; and Amy has gone to Aunt March, bribed with the offer of drawing lessons.

>Little Women, closely based on Louisa M. Alcott’s own experience of family life, was first published in 1869 and has never lost its extraordinary power to move and delight - from the heartrending story of gentle Beth to the humorous adventures of tomboyish Jo, and Meg’s vain attempts to cut a fashionable figure in "society".

Esta es la historia de la señora March y sus cuatro hijas, Meg, Jo, Beth y Amy, quienes desde la inocencia de la niñez experimentan el despertar de la juventud. Con la guerra civil estadounidense de trasfondo, la novela sigue la vida de las cuatro hermanas, con sus enamoramientos, sus aspiraciones intelectuales, sus alegrías y complicaciones.

The March sisters are among the most beloved characters in children's literature, and Little Men picks up the story of fiery, headstrong Jo where Good Wives left off. Intelligent, funny, perceptive, and genuinely touching, the novel is set at a rather unusual boarding school run by Jo and her husband, where the pupils are encouraged to pillow fight and keep pets. When the penniless but talented orphan Nat Blake shows up on her doorstep, Jo takes him in, and his arrival sets in motion a chain of events that will affect all their lives.
