An Old-Fashioned Girl

An Old-Fashioned Girl

Louisa May Alcott, highly popular author of "Little Women", wrote a less known literary jewel in 1869, "An Old-Fashioned Girl".

"An Old-Fashioned Girl" is a morality tale, it’s the town mouse and the country mouse, it’s a romantic love story with a happy ending and with some satisfactory twists to keep it fresh, and it’s a novel of women’s emancipation in the Gilded Age of America in the late 19th century.

"An Old-Fashioned Girl" revolves around Polly Milton", the old-fashioned girl who titles the story. Polly visits her wealthy friend Fanny Shaw in the city and is overwhelmed by the fashionable and urban life they live--but also left out because of her "countrified" manners and outdated clothes. However, Polly's warmth, support and kindness eventually win her the hearts of all her friend´s family members. Six years later, Polly comes back to the city to become a music teacher.
