Acknowledgements Introduction Selected Bibliography A Note on the Text Hospital Sketches My Contraband Behind a Mask Happy Women Psyche's Art The Sunny Side, from an Old-Fashioned Girl Work: A Story of Experience How I Went Out to Service Transcendental Wild Oats Diana and Persis Jo's Last Scrape, from Jo's Boys Explanatory Notes
Synopsis
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., 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.

I ordered this lot of 4 bridge books because I wanted one of the books. Price of the lot of 4 was cheaper than the price of the book I wanted from other sellers. As a bonus, I liked 2 of the other 3 books. Items were as described, well packed and arrived quickly. I would buy from this seller again.
