À propos de l'auteur

Louisa May Alcott (1832–1888) remains one of the most beloved American novelists, best known for her semi-autobiographical work, 'Little Women.' Born in Germantown, Pennsylvania, she was educated by her father, Bronson Alcott, and through her experiences in the progressive intellectual circles of New England, including the Transcendentalist movement. A fervent abolitionist and feminist, Alcott worked as a nurse during the Civil War, which informed her later writings. 'Little Men' (1871), her lesser-known sequel to 'Little Women,' continues the narrative of the March family, particularly Jo's experiences running a boys' school. While it may not have reached the height of popularity achieved by its predecessor, 'Little Men' further demonstrates Alcott's commitment to exploring themes of education, morality, and gender roles. Her literary style often combines charming domestic detail, moral didacticism, and elements of sentimentalism, which were common in the 19th-century literature. Alcott's rich and nuanced portrayal of family life and women's roles has ensured her lasting place in American literature. Alongside her children's books, Alcott also produced works under the pseudonym A. M. Barnard, which featured darker themes and more sensational narratives, showcasing her versatility as a writer. Her prolific career spans over 30 books, cementing her legacy as a pioneering figure in American letters.
