Raised in New England by her transcendentalist parents, she grew up among many of the well-known intellectuals of the day, such as Ralph Waldo Emerson, Nathaniel Hawthorne, Henry David Thoreau, and Henry Wadsworth Longfellow.

Little Women (Book 1-4: With Original Illustration)
The first part of this iconic book series – «Little Women» is a semi-autobiographical account of Louisa May Alcott's childhood with her sisters in Concord, Massachusetts. The novel tells the story of four teenaged sisters and their mother, Marmee. The family lives in a new neighborhood in Massachusetts in genteel poverty. Having lost all his money, their father is acting as a pastor, miles from home, involved in the American Civil War. The women face their first Christmas without him. Meg and Jo March, the elder two, have to work in order to support the family: Meg teaches a nearby family of four children; Jo assists her aged great-aunt March, a wealthy widow living in a mansion, Plumfield. Beth, too timid for school, is content to stay at home and help with housework; Amy is still at school. Meg is beautiful and traditional, Jo is a tomboy who writes; Beth is a peacemaker and a pianist; Amy is an artist who longs for elegance and fine society. Jo is impulsive and quick to anger. One of her challenges is trying to control her anger, a challenge that her mother experiences… Part two also known as «Good Wives», followed the March sisters into adulthood and their respective marriages. «Little Men» detailed Jo's life at the Plumfield School that she founded with her husband Professor Bhaer at the conclusion of Part Two of Little Women. And J"o's Boys" completed the «March Family Saga». Alcott made women's rights integral to her stories, and her fiction became her «most important feminist contribution» – even considering all the efforts Alcott made to help facilitate women's rights during her lifetime.
Маленькие женщины
«Маленькие женщины» – семейная сага, повествующая о судьбах четырех сестер Марч – добросердечной красавицы Мег, талантливой фантазерки Джо, кроткой и нежной Бет и «сорванца в юбке» Эмми. …Гражданская война идет далеко на Юге, но ее грозные отголоски достигли и дружной семьи небогатого провинциального пастора Марча – сам он ушел на фронт полковым священником, и жена с дочерьми, как и множество других американок, день за днем живут в страхе трагических известий. Однако никакая война не в силах помешать девочкам взрослеть и превращаться в юных девушек. Девушек с их обычными и трогательными девичьими мечтами и надеждами, радостями, горестями и, конечно, первой любовью…
Little Women
Sisters are forever! Über die Freundschaft von vier Schwestern
Little Women – das sind die vier Schwestern March, und es ist die Geschichte einer Schriftstellerin, die nach Unabhängigkeit strebte und dabei einen Welterfolg schuf. Louisa May Alcott legte viel von sich selbst in Jo, die zweitälteste der vier Schwestern, und lässt auch sie von einer Karriere als Schriftstellerin träumen. Zwar ist das – wie so vieles andere – für eine Frau in der zweiten Hälfte des 19. Jahrhunderts nicht leicht, doch Jo, Meg, Beth und Amy gehen ihren Weg – gemeinsam und doch jede für sich. Mit Pinsel und Stift ist die Künstlerin Kera Till ins Neuengland der 1860er Jahre eingetaucht und hat die unterschiedlichen Charaktere der vier Schwestern mit schwärmerischen Details, floralen Elementen und verträumten Mustern eingefangen. In diesem Band finden sich Teil I und Teil II in vollständiger Neuübersetzung.
»Ich will etwas Großartiges machen, etwas Heldenhaftes und Wundervolles, das nach meinem Tod unvergessen bleibt. Ich weiß noch nicht, was, aber ich halte die Augen offen und habe vor, euch alle eines Tages in Staunen zu versetzen. Ich glaube, ich werde Bücher schreiben und reich und berühmt werden.«(Jo March)
