Little Women

The story follows the lives of the March sisters, exploring their personal growth, relationships, and struggles during the Civil War era. Alcott's keen insight into the characters' dynamics and societal expectations resonated with readers, leading to the swift completion of a second volume. This continuation, initially known as Good Wives in the UK, further deepens the narrative, culminating in a combined edition published in 1880 that solidified its status as a beloved classic.
