Les Quatre Filles Du Docteur Marsch

Meg is the eldest and on the brink of love. Then there's tomboy Jo who longs to be a writer. Sweet-natured Beth always puts others first, and finally there's Amy, the youngest and most precocious. Together they are the March sisters. Even though money is short, times are tough and their father is away at war, their infectious sense of fun sweeps everyone up in their adventures - including Laurie, the boy next door. And through sisterly squabbles, their happy times and sad ones too, the sisters discover that growing up is sometimes very hard to do.

Based on Louisa May Alcott's childhood, this lively portrait of nineteenth-century family life possesses a lasting vitality that has endeared it to generations of readers.

A wonderful story... As a child, I strongly identified with Jo because she is a writer. -Jacqueline Wilson

The American female myth. -Madelon Bedell

It is an essential American novel, perhaps the essential American novel for girls. Girls come to it on their own. -Jane Smiley

In "Little Women", Alcott anticipated realism by twenty or thirty years. -G. K. Chesterton

Les quatre filles du docteur March

Dimenticate le piccole borghesi per bene. La Alcott intinge la sua penna nell'inchiostro più nero e torbido che usa, con la maestria che l'ha resa nota ed amata a generazioni di giovinette e non solo, per narrare storie in cui si intrecciano l'inganno, il mistero, le passioni più scabrose, i vizi proibiti e le paure inconfessabili. In questa antologia di racconti, alcuni scritti sotto pseudonimo e per lungo tempo non attribuiti alla vera autrice, la Alcott dimostra, se ce ne fosse ancora bisogno, di essere una scrittrice capace di sondare ogni aspetto dell'animo umano.

Horrida

Adaptation d'un texte classique que l'enfant a intérêt à lire dans sa version intégrale. Cet album, supprimant tout suspense, risque fort d'en détourner son lecteur plutôt que de l'y inciter, tel que le souhaite l'éditeur. Illustration médiocre aux couleurs ternes. Pour piètres lecteurs qui ne recourront jamais à l'oeuvre.

It was first serialised in the Merry's Museum magazine between July and August in 1869 and consisted of only six chapters. For the finished product, however, Alcott continued the story from the chapter "Six Years Afterwards" and so it ended up with nineteen chapters in all. The book revolves around Polly Milton, the old-fashioned girl who titles the story. Polly visits her wealthy friend Fanny Shaw in the city and is overwhelmed by the fashionable and urban life they live--but also left out because of her "countrified" manners and outdated clothes.
