Louisa May Alcott's Fairy Tales and Fantasy StoriesUniv. of Tennessee Press, 1992 - 392 pages While these stories can make no claim to being great art, they are an important segment of Alcott's canon. They demonstrate that, while she was exploring new territory with some of her work, she was also working within the existing tradition of the didactic fairy tale. |
