1-0 out of 5 stars Printing Errors Galore
This book has approximately one typo per page, which is annoying in itself but also detracts from the flow of the text. It also underlines every occurrence of "store" or "buy." Is this some weird subliminal message? It has a very small font, which is strange given that the target audience for this book would be ages 8-12. The interior pictures were repetitive versions of the ugly cover picture. I remembered this book from my youth and bought it for my daughter, but wouldn't recommend it for anyone. Find another edition and buy that. ... Read more

1-0 out of 5 stars Not the book I ordered!!
They sent me a copy of Little Women, but a COMPLETLEY DIFFERENT EDITION from what I ordered. Now I have to go through the hassle of returning it. They said that that was the edition they had on hand, so they sent it out!!

They thought I wouldn't notice. I ordered a pocket edition and they sent me a large book, and a large print one at that!!!

I would give them NO stars if I could!

3-0 out of 5 stars Part I only!
I bought this perennial favorite to add to my barely-started collection of these tiny Collector's Library books (sadly, B&N discontinued publication of these). I love that it's both small and hardcover- perfect for traveling- especially for long hours on the plane or whatnot. I was somewhat disappointed to find that this book contains only part I of Little Women, ending with Chapter 23 ("Aunt March Settles the Question"). Luckily, I have what I call my "home copy" of the book which naturally has both parts...so I don't feel like I've made a mistake in purchasing this one. But I thought I'd let you know that this book only features part I so that you know what to expect! ... Read more

Editorial Review

Product Description
The discovery in recent years of Louisa May Alcott's pseudonymous sensation stories has made readers and scholars increasingly aware of her accomplishments beyond her most famous novel, Little Women, one of the great international best-sellers of all time. What has been recovered throws new light on the children's books and asks us to question our assumptions about the suposedly staid and sentimental Alcott. Alternative Alcott includes works never before reprinted, including "How I Went Out to Service," "My Contraband," and "Psyche's Art." It also contains Behind a Mask, her most important sensation story; the full and correct text of her last unfinished novel, Diana and Persis; "Transcendental Wild Oats"; Hospital Sketches; and Alcott's other important texts on nineteenth-century social history.This anthology brings together for the first time a variety of Louisa May Alcott's journalistic, satiric, feminist, and sensation texts. Elaine Showalter has provided an excellent introduction and notes to the collection. ... Read more

2-0 out of 5 stars Beach Read?
I rate "Little Women" as one of my favorite books of all time, ever since my early childhood, and I was eager to read Louisa May Alcott's "unknown" stories. (I had already read "Behind A Mask," which is a collection of stories very similar to these.) Frankly, I was disappointed by the quality of the writing. The plots may have been page-turners at that time, but I could see every conceivable twist coming from miles away. After a while, the characters began to bore me to death because every single one was the same.

It seems like Alcott had a story recipe that she followed closely for every story: an amazingly beautiful heroine with a dark secret, at least two or three men who fall desperately in love with her (who have their own dark secrets), a few deaths of some supporting characters along the way whom we don't care about, and a conclusion usually finding the heroine being punished in some way (because underneath her beauty, she is a femme fatale). Every single one of Alcott's heroines has golden tresses, alluring violet eyes, beautiful white arms, and the tiniest daintiest feet. EVERY SINGLE ONE. I had to laugh at how she felt it necessary to describe these attributes over and over and over, and how all of the male characters fell over themselves to be with this cookie-cutter heroine. I think Alcott may also have had a secret fetish for the May-December romance, since in almost all of her stories, there is a theme of the child-bride being married off to a man over 45. She dabbles a bit in drug addiction, incest, mental disability, and plenty of murder and scheming.

STORY 1 "V.V." : Beautiful blond heroine tries to marry a man for his title, but when their marriage falls through, she goes after his cousin. She harbors a dark secret, of course. (Murder, scheming, broken romance)

STORY 2 "A Marble Woman" : Beautiful blond heroine goes to live with her new guardian, who used to be her mom's lover. She eventually marries this man, but discovers that he has a dark secret. (Sort-of incest, opium addiction, May-December romance)

STORY 3 "The Skeleton in the Closet" : Beautiful blond heroine lives alone in a gorgeous house, and she falls in love with the narrator. However, she possesses a dark secret. (Mental illness, suicide, jealousy)

STORY 4 "A Whisper in the Dark" : Beautiful blond heroine who is a wealthy heiress goes to live with her cousin and her uncle, both of whom want her. They try to drive her crazy and steal her fortune. (Mental illness, incest)

I think you get the picture. All in all this is a good beach read or something to pass away the time at, say, a doctor's office or a boring play, but I find Alcott's "sensational" writing to be pretty tedious. ... Read more
