书籍简介

《小妇人》是有史以来较受欢迎的儿童故事之一，是根据作者自己年轻时的经历编写的。它描述了生活在新英格兰一个小社区的马奇四姐妹的家庭。老大梅格漂亮，希望成为一名淑女；十五岁的乔不苟言笑，不拘小节，有志于成为一名作家；十三岁的贝丝是个细腻的孩子，喜欢音乐；十二岁的艾米是个金发美女。一个他们的家庭冒险故事，他们为增加家庭收入所做的努力，他们与邻近的劳伦斯家的友谊，以及他们后来的恋情，仍然像以前一样新鲜和诱人。

Little Women is one of the best-loved children's stories of all time, based on the author's own youthful experiences. It describes the family of the four March sisters living in a small New England community. Meg, the eldest, is pretty and wishes to be a lady; Jo, at fifteen is ungainly and unconventional with an ambition to be an author; Beth is a delicate child of thirteen with a taste for music and Amy is a blonde beauty of twelve. The story of their domestic adventures, their attempts to increase the family income, their friendship with the neighbouring Laurence family, and their later love affairs remains as fresh and beguiling as ever.

Louisa May Alcott (November 29, 1832 – March 6, 1888) was an American novelist, short story writer, and poet best known as the author of the novel Little Women (1868) and its sequels Little Men (1871) and Jo's Boys (1886). Raised in New England by her transcendentalist parents, Abigail May and Amos Bronson Alcott, she grew up among many well-known intellectuals of the day, such as Margaret Fuller,Ralph Waldo Emerson, Nathaniel Hawthorne, Henry David Thoreau, and Henry Wadsworth Longfellow.Alcott's family suffered from financial difficulties, and while she worked to help support the family from an early age, she also sought an outlet in writing. She began to receive critical success for her writing in the 1860s. Early in her career, she sometimes used pen names such as A. M. Barnard, under which she wrote lurid short stories and sensation novels for adults that focused on passion and revenge.
