This classic was simply engrossing and not overly moralizing. Poetic and lyrical, sad, light-hearted, and touching all at once. A tale of poverty, identity, family, loss, love, and marriages. A tale about art and talent; piano, painting, sewing, and writing, as well as hard work. I simply adored all four girls and their separate characters. All the side characters also worked into my heart and my appreciation. There were so many strong feminist resistance presented by Louisa May Alcott through her character “stand-in” Jo March and it was well executed for its time.

“Those we love never truly leave us, Harry. There are things that death cannot touch.” 

“In every shining moment of happiness is that drop of poison: the knowledge that pain will come again. Be honest to those you love, show your pain. To suffer is as human as to breathe.”
