Little Women - Louisa M. Alcott

So far I haven't read such a pleasant and heart-warming classic like 'Little Women'. It paints the simple everyday events of the March family - the compassionate and loving Mrs March and her 4 daughters - amiable Meg , dynamic Joe , dove-like Beth and pretty Amy. They live during the civil war ,  experiencing the pain of poverty and the joys of growing up , love and family life. All of them are ambitious and hard working and they love each other like hell and they want to be good all the time. At the same time the book honestly represents the flaws of women - Meg is materialistic , Joe is headstrong and thoughtless , Beth whimsical and Amy aloof. Though affected and moralistic, the March family entertains us to the end.


To my sis - ''Bless you, my darling, and remember you are always in my heart - oh, tucked so close there is no chance of escape ...''
