March - A Love Story
In A Time Of War
£1.99
Winner of the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction & Richard & Judy pick. From the author of the acclaimed ' Year of Wonders' & ' People of the Book', a historical novel & love story set during a time of catastrophe on the front lines of the American Civil War. Set during the American Civil War, ' March' tells the story of John March, known to us as the father away from his family of girls in ' Little Women', Louisa May Alcott's classic American novel. In Brooks's telling, March emerges as an abolitionist & idealistic chaplain on the front lines of a war that tests his faith in himself & in the Union cause when he learns that his side, too, is capable of barbarism & racism. As he recovers from a near-fatal illness in a Washington hospital, he must reassemble the shards of his shattered mind & body, & find a way to reconnect with a wife & daughters who have no idea of the ordeals he has been through. As Alcott drew on her real-life sisters in shaping the characters of her little women, so Brooks turned to the journals & letters of Bronson Alcott, Louisa May's father, an idealistic educator, animal rights exponent & abolitionist who was a friend & confidante of Ralph Waldo Emerson & Henry David Thoreau. The story spans the vibrant intellectual world of Concord & the sensuous antebellum South, through to the first year of the Civil War as the North reels under a series of unexpected defeats. Like her bestselling ' Year of Wonders', ' March' follows an unconventional love story. It explores the passions between a man & a woman, the tenderness of parent & child, & the life-changing power of an ardently held belief. ...
