Published in 1868–1869, Louisa May Alcott’s Little Women is a landmark realist novel detailing the lives, ambitions, and coming-of-age of the four March sisters—Meg, Jo, Beth, and Amy—against the backdrop of the American Civil War. Directed by Greta Gerwig, the 2019 adaptation of Little Women is a critically acclaimed, non-linear retelling of Alcott's novel, celebrated for its modern, feminist take on the story, its focus on the economic realities of women in the 1860s, and a unique, meta-textual ending that blurs the line between the character Jo March and the author, Louisa May Alcott.
As the UN’s 2026 International Women's Day theme focuses on rights, justice, and action for all women, Alcott's novel provides a timeless blueprint for women defining their own, varied paths to fulfillment.
