The beloved American novel “Little Women” tells of four sisters who grow from childhood into adulthood during the Civil War. Over 150 years after it was written, it remains a compelling, deeply moving account of family life in mid-19th-century America.

Beyond its historical significance and literary merit, it’s considered a masterpiece because of its poignant themes of familial love, particularly the bond of sisterhood.
