Som nord， syd， øst og vest møder vi fire perspektiver; fire personligheder; fire skæbner。 Der er sødme og pli for fuld udblæsning og et forsøg på humor， som er forældet idag。 Alligevel er fortællingen fortsat fuld af vitalitet og gode moraler。 Man orker at læse den til ende og er ganske godt underholdt。 Det er en klassiker， og den viser sit værd i genkendelsen af alle tiders mangfoldighed。 Enhver pige vil kunne finde sig selv i "Little Woman" og føle sig genkendt， anerkendt og beundret。 Selv Pat Som nord， syd， øst og vest møder vi fire perspektiver; fire personligheder; fire skæbner。 Der er sødme og pli for fuld udblæsning og et forsøg på humor， som er forældet idag。 Alligevel er fortællingen fortsat fuld af vitalitet og gode moraler。 Man orker at læse den til ende og er ganske godt underholdt。 Det er en klassiker， og den viser sit værd i genkendelsen af alle tiders mangfoldighed。 Enhver pige vil kunne finde sig selv i "Little Woman" og føle sig genkendt， anerkendt og beundret。 Selv Patti Smith， som er en gudsbenådet forfatter og helt særegen i sin gøren og laden， har ladet sig guide og fundet sit match i denne roman。 Det， i sig selv， er et stempel af format og fortæller om kontrasternes tiltrækning。 。。。more

This book was so enjoyable！ The writing was wonderful， and it was such a treat getting to follow the stories of Jo March and her family members。 I loved the individual plot lines， the beautiful imagery in the writing， and the emotion that was defined and established throughout the entire book。 Like the endnote suggested， is perfect to read regardless of your age - each woman can take something away from reading it。 Was really interesting to see how the role of a woman used to be defined， and it This book was so enjoyable！ The writing was wonderful， and it was such a treat getting to follow the stories of Jo March and her family members。 I loved the individual plot lines， the beautiful imagery in the writing， and the emotion that was defined and established throughout the entire book。 Like the endnote suggested， is perfect to read regardless of your age - each woman can take something away from reading it。 Was really interesting to see how the role of a woman used to be defined， and it was inspiring to see how Jo wanted to be the one to outlive the stereotype。 。。。more

So very long and very preachy but despite that， it did have some good points as long as you're not getting provoced by choice of words and remember that what can seem offensive today doesn't always have the same meaning or intent back then。 I'm glad it's over and hadn't i listen to the audio book then I'd， I might not have finished it So very long and very preachy but despite that， it did have some good points as long as you're not getting provoced by choice of words and remember that what can seem offensive today doesn't always have the same meaning or intent back then。 I'm glad it's over and hadn't i listen to the audio book then I'd， I might not have finished it 。。。more

Só para esclarecer， eu li （ouvi） só a parte 1， que cobre até o pai delas voltar pra casa。 No final do áudio livro elas explicam que nos EUA as partes 1 e 2 são agrupadas num único volume， mas na Inglaterra continua separado。E como essa primeira parte é incrível！Minha identificação com a Jo foi instantânea， mas eu gosto das outras meninas também。 （A Amy é um saco， mas não mais do que seria esperado de uma menina de 11 anos）Os conflitos do livro são muito atuais， o principal deles sendo: "COMO EU Só para esclarecer， eu li （ouvi） só a parte 1， que cobre até o pai delas voltar pra casa。 No final do áudio livro elas explicam que nos EUA as partes 1 e 2 são agrupadas num único volume， mas na Inglaterra continua separado。E como essa primeira parte é incrível！Minha identificação com a Jo foi instantânea， mas eu gosto das outras meninas também。 （A Amy é um saco， mas não mais do que seria esperado de uma menina de 11 anos）Os conflitos do livro são muito atuais， o principal deles sendo: "COMO EU ESTOU CANSADA DE SER POBRE！！！"。 Elas passam muito do livro aprendendo a se contentar com o que elas tem， não de um jeito que glorifica a pobreza， mas vendo que sem saúde， amor e bom gosto （que elas já tem） riqueza não adianta muita coisa。Também é legal ver a dinâmica entre as irmãs， com brincadeiras， piadas internas， pequenas brigas， e como cada uma se ajusta ao crescimento das outras。E， como a menina cristã que sou， adoro o fato de que elas vivem e trabalham e brincam normalmente， mas na hora do aperto a mãe delas sempre fala que a força para controlar o temperamento e abandonar as invejas e vaidades só pode ser obtida com auxílio divino （mas que não é algo instantâneo）。Enfim， agora eu PRECISO ler a continuação， porque tem ships deixados em aberto que eu preciso ver se concretizarem kkkk 。。。more

Great novel， of course， and Laura Dern performs well as the narrator。 But why did the directors get adult actors to play the children's voices？ More than a little annoying。 Great novel， of course， and Laura Dern performs well as the narrator。 But why did the directors get adult actors to play the children's voices？ More than a little annoying。 。。。more

This book is definitely a classical book with its language and grammar so it's not for everyone and I can understand why。 But as for myself， I thoroughly enjoyed living the lives of my favorite little women。 No spoilers but I think all the couples and problems worked out in a beautiful way， but a real life way， not ways that some solve them and then act like it's all okay or it never happened。 I don't really have a favorite little woman because I loved reading all of them grow and actually （at l This book is definitely a classical book with its language and grammar so it's not for everyone and I can understand why。 But as for myself， I thoroughly enjoyed living the lives of my favorite little women。 No spoilers but I think all the couples and problems worked out in a beautiful way， but a real life way， not ways that some solve them and then act like it's all okay or it never happened。 I don't really have a favorite little woman because I loved reading all of them grow and actually （at least try） to learn from their mistakes。 Personally though， I am very much like Jo in almost every sense so I was glad to read about such an independent and family-loving character in that era of life。 I think everyone should read this book， no matter gender， but just know that language and phrasing might be challenging at certain points。 。。。more

همیشه برام به عنوان یک نوستالژی دوست داشتنیه، و شخصیت تک تک دختران رو دوست دارم مخصوصا （جو） که علاقه به نوشتن دارد و کتاب و نمایشنامه می نویسد。 جسور، رُک، مغرور و وفادار است。

even moral lectures should have an end。 I'm sorry but I physically couldn't stand this book。 I liked the movies and I like the general outline of the characters so I was really looking forward to this as I thought I was going to be faced with some kind of cute likable classic， maybe a little boring but enjoyable nonetheless。 Instead， I got page after page of preaching and life lessons and morality shoved into every tiny plot point and I just found it suffocating to read。During the first half even moral lectures should have an end。 I'm sorry but I physically couldn't stand this book。 I liked the movies and I like the general outline of the characters so I was really looking forward to this as I thought I was going to be faced with some kind of cute likable classic， maybe a little boring but enjoyable nonetheless。 Instead， I got page after page of preaching and life lessons and morality shoved into every tiny plot point and I just found it suffocating to read。During the first half of the book， I was bored but in a way that made me feel I should have read this book as a child because I may have appreciated its simplicity more。 During the second half， I was SO HAPPY that I had never read this book as a child because the amount of shame and guilt and judgement that's in the story was mind-boggling to me。 The characters are all model citizens and pure souls in a very one-dimensional way which is not necessarily a thing I hate， okay？ I'm not here saying everyone should be evil and this book is unrealistic because， idk， Jo never kills anyone or whatever。 What annoys me is how every single non-angelic thing the characters do is met with horror and disgust by the other characters and leads to them facing crazy repercussions。 For example， the whole chapter about Jo writing "sensation stories" for the newspaper and the SHAME the others bestowed upon her as though she was committing the worst crime ever was baffling to me。 I couldn't understand why Laurie was even friends with these guys because the poor guy couldn't do anything without being judged to death by them about how he's no longer a sensible boy。 And worst of all， spoiler， but who doesn't already know this at this point: Beth literally ends up DYING because at one point in their lives， her sisters were too lazy to go visit a sick family。 I just 。。。 I'm sorry， I had to pause and take a few deep breaths multiple times as I read this story。 I am genuinely perplexed as to why this is so many people's favorite book， to be honest。 I mean no disrespect， if you were able to enjoy it and if it's a nostalgic childhood classic for you， that's great; but for me， outside of the occasionally cute sisterly bonds， I really found no redeemable qualities here。 。。。more
