Millions of readers have fallen in love with Little Women, Louisa May Alcott's enduring and treasured classic. But how could Louisa May Alcott - who never married or fell in love, as far as we know - have written so convincingly about young love and heartbreak without having experienced it herself? In The Lost Summer of Louisa May Alcott, Kelly O'Connor McNees gracefully mixes fact and fiction as she imagines a secret love affair Louisa experienced in the summer of 1855, an episode lost to history, which would ultimately inspire Jo and Laurie's relationship in Little Women. Join us for a night of great women's fiction and our traditional grab-bag book drawing!
