Join Blacksburg friends and literary fans for a celebration of Louisa May Alcott’s American classic, Little Women. Participants will explore the novel’s timeless themes of friendship, romance, and family as we consider how and why four young girls growing up in Civil War America have enchanted readers around the world for almost two centuries. Dr. Ashley Reed, Associate Professor of English at Virginia Tech, will facilitate discussion and offer context from Alcott’s life and culture.

Bring your own well-worn copy of Little Women or purchase a new one through Blacksburg Books: customers who mention the book club will receive a 15% discount on their purchase of the novel.

Make sure to get tickets to see the VT School of Performing Arts production of the play at the Moss Arts Center, April 23-26!

AND go see the 1994 film adaptation at The Lyric Theater on Thursday, March 20 at 7:30 p.m.!
