Claim Text
In real life, Alcott was equally put off by readers’ demands after the first half of “Little Women” came out, writing that she wouldn’t “marry Jo to Laurie to please anyone” (although she didn’t keep her the “literary spinster” that would have better reflected her own circumstances).

This article reviews two new retellings of Louisa May Alcott's 'Little Women' that give the March sisters a darker and more contemporary spin. One reimagines the sisters as monsters, while the other presents a murder mystery.
