Little Women

Little Women is Louisa May Alcott's beloved classic of American literature—a heartwarming story of family, sisterhood, and the journey from childhood to womanhood.

The March sisters—Meg, Jo, Beth, and Amy—live with their beloved mother Marmee in a modest New England home while their father serves as a chaplain in the Civil War. Though poor in money, the family is rich in love, imagination, and the determination to overcome life's hardships.

Each sister struggles with her own flaws: beautiful Meg learns that character matters more than wealth; tomboyish Jo, the aspiring writer, must tame her fierce temper; gentle, musical Beth faces the greatest trial of all; and spoiled, artistic Amy discovers the true meaning of generosity.

Through the years, the sisters face poverty, illness, lost love, and the slow loss of innocence. Yet through it all, their bond remains unbroken. From the famous scene of the Christmas breakfast sacrifice to the tragedy of Beth's illness and Jo's triumphant career as a writer, Little Women has moved generations of readers.

First published in 1868, Little Women was an immediate commercial and critical success. It has never been out of print and has been adapted countless times for film, stage, and television—most recently in Greta Gerwig's acclaimed 2019 film. The novel created the template for the American girl's coming-of-age story and remains as fresh and inspiring today as it was 150 years ago.

This audiobook is based on the 1868 public domain text. Produced and narrated by Doushu, with AI assistance.
