a much more serious artistic creation from Alcott which is reflective and uplifting, and at times dark and gloomy with the tale of ‘The Death of John’. Ultimately it a profound piece of work that charts Alcott’s continuing fight to represent social issues in industrial America. Have the tissues ready for this one. Don’t say we didn’t warn you. Louisa May Alcott (1832-1888) was an author, abolitionist and proud feminist. Her family suffered financially while she was growing up and so she was forced to take on multiple jobs in her youth to help provide for her family. Her writing became her outlet, forming her ideas and beliefs in the empowerment of women and people in to literature that reverberates to this day. Her most notable works include "Little Women", which is now a movie starring Saoirse Ronan and Timothée Chalamet, its sequel ‘Little Men’ and ‘An Old Fashioned Girl’.
