Beth Kesler
Generations of readers young and old, male and female, have fallen in love with the March sisters of Louisa May Alcott's most popular and enduring novel, Little Women. Here are talented tomboy and author-to-be Jo, tragically frail Beth, beautiful Meg, and romantic, spoiled Amy, united in their devotion to each other and their struggles to survive in New England during the Civil War. It is no secret that Alcott based Little Women on her own early life.
While her father, the freethinking reformer and abolitionist Bronson Alcott, hobnobbed with such eminent male authors as Emerson, Thoreau, and Hawthorne, Louisa supported herself and her sisters with "woman's work," including sewing, doing laundry, and acting as a domestic servant. But she soon discovered she could make more money writing. Little Women brought her lasting fame and fortune, and far from being the "girl's book" her publisher requested, it explores such timeless themes as love and death, war and peace, the conflict between personal ambition and family responsibilities, and the clash of cultures between Europe and America.

I read this as a child, and now, some 60 years later, look back and see the mirror of events in the lives of myself and those around me.
For those that believe that the "classics" are outdated, truly do not understand that some stories are lessons, no matter what age you live in.
Truths that are true today as was back then!

I have tried sooooooo many narrations of this classic. A lot of narrators speak in a nauseatingly sweet voice which is totally inappropriate for a book that broke conventions to realistically describe young adulthood. Then there are the accents. No, Virginia. The Alcotts did not speak like a Midwest DJ. They lived in Massachusetts during a time when regional accents were pronounced. OK I’m still waiting for an authentic Bostonian accent (eg the original Parent Trap) but this is a good substitute. The narrator has done her homework and the different accents are authentic. As for the March girls, their voices are spot on with respect to personality and age: Amy sounds appropriately childish, Meg sounds like a young women on the verge of adulthood, etc. And given the cost, especially if you purchase the kindle version first, it’s a steal.
This is the one to buy
