C'est l'histoire d'une fille qui n'est pas d'accord avec l'ordre social. De l'enfance à l'écriture, en passant par un bar mystérieux, une maison abandonnée, un immeuble rempli de sectes, ou le sommet d'une montagne, la narratrice nous entraîne dans une odyssée parsemée de miroirs homériques, de chants d'aèdes qui nous montrent le livre en train de se faire.

Published as a single novel in 1880; the story of Little Women has never lost its appeal. The semi-autobiographical coming-of-age story follows four sisters growing up in rural 19th-century New England, and the independent and outspoken main character is based on the author herself. 150 years later, the feminist leanings of the female-led narrative still resonate.
