Biography tracing the fascinating life of Louisa May Alcott from her happy childhood in Pennsylvania and Boston to her success as a writer of such classics as Little women. ( ) I’m not a big fan of Little Women (heinous, I know), so I wasn’t too excited to be reading a biography of Louisa May Alcott. This read as a pretty disjointed biography on top of that. I get that the information collected was probably a little rough around the edges, but the fact/story aspect was presented a little bizarrely. I found a groove after the book discussed Little Women being written, so I imagine that’s when her life was more accurately documented, and that's when the author had more information to mold. Either way, I didn’t like how the earlier years were done. This is not a bad book, and I've liked Cornelia Meigs' other works. I'm a more factual person, and I don't get along with biographies that have a fictionalized feel to them. This books tells the life story of Louisa May Alcott in a very descriptive, sentimental narrative. Most of the book focused on LMA's childhood, family hardship, and struggle for fame as a young writer. Her writing of "Little Women" and her success and fame after "Little Women" was published were covered only in the last two chapters. I appreciated the information about LMA's life, but would have preferred a book not as fluffy, with fewer flowery descriptions. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
