little women: an excellent book email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 94/100. Keola12 (408)1 year ago

I love the book LITTLE WOMEN. It's a story about the March sisters and the obstacles they had to overcome in life. There was never enough money; therefore, the family had to do with what they had. Even if their father did know influential people in the writing world of whom he was friends with. Jo March used her writing talents in the hopes of helping to support her family financially. She submitted her story to a local newspaper who wanted to publish her work. She had a journal with a several of her stories recorded in it. But her younger sister Amy destroyed the journal by throwing it in the fire, to take revenge on Jo for not letting her go with on an outing. But when Amy March falls in the ice and is close to death, as a result of getting very sick, Jo March is sorry for being mean to Amy, and she forgave Amy for burning the journal containing the stories.

I love Little women too.
I did not thought of the fact that Jo's father was influencial, or for that matter that Larries's grandfather had money and influences too.
I think you are right, it is endearing that she did all by herself and that the whole family has pride.

I really love the book too. I read the novel some time ago and saw the movie on a number of occasions. I think it's also a novel about being women at time when women had very little opportunities opened to them. And the readers see how they all deal with that and to some extent, come to terms with it. Personally, I think it is something we can all relate to, to some degree, even in today's society. Because we go through similar obstacles as the March sisters do.

I LOVE the book, too. Have you also read the entire trilogy? There are still "Good Wives" and "Little Men", the continuation of Little Women.:-)))) They're also really enjoyable to read.;-D

I didn't know that little women is a trilogy until now:-) I haven't read this book though but I saw the movie and I think it was great, the March sisters especially jo is fascinating and endearing also.


myLot reputation of 98/100. ailema4ever (1168)  1 year ago

Well, I found the trilogy accidentally years and years back (the three books were binded and packed together as one THICK book)...back then my English was still too limited to read it...only after university I started reading them and I was HOOKED right away and couldn't stop reading until the end.:-))))

Yep, those characters are really endearing, eh?;-D
