    Good Wives: Little Women, Book Two

    Written by Louisa May Alcott

    Narrated by Anne Undeland

    4.5/5

    About this audiobook

    Following her critically acclaimed narration of Little Women Part One, narrator Anne Undeland picks up the story from where it left off with Good Wives aka Little Women Part Two.

    Three years after the curtain closed on the first book, we're brought back into the March family fold, opening with Meg’s wedding. No longer little girls dreaming of “castles in the air,” Meg, Jo, Beth, and Amy are now young women, each with her own share of joy and heartache, and each with her own path to forge.

    What mark will the sisters leave on the world? Will they marry? How will they navigate both life and death in all its complication and beauty? Alcott answers these questions and more with her characteristic grace, her singular wit and her abiding faith in the power of love. A classic for all ages.

    “Anne Undeland captivates listeners with her exquisite narration. Listeners are effortlessly transported into the lives of the March Family. Undeland creates distinct and vibrant portraits of these beloved characters. Themes of women’s roles, family and sacrifice for others remain relevant for contemporary listeners.” AudioFile Magazine
