It’s been well-established that Alli is a superfan of Louisa May Alcott’s Little Women, but on Episode 104, her guest introduces her to two of the author’s other books — Eight Cousins and Rose in Bloom. On this episode, they chat about how Alcott’s real-life influenced her storytelling and consider the many ways in which these books were highly progressive and feminist when they were written, even if it doesn’t seem that way now. Mary Kay Andrews is the New York Times-bestselling author of 27 novels. Her latest novel is Hello, Summer. Follow her on Instagram (@marykayandrews). Hosted on Acast.
