"Ci sono dei libri che fanno scalpore, poi vengono dimenticati. Altri sopravvivono al passare degli anni: sono i classici. Uno di questi è 'Piccole donne': racconta la crescita di quattro sorelle adolescenti nell'Ottocento americano, un tempo lontanissimo dal nostro, apparentemente molto diverso. Eppure le sorelle March parlano il nostro linguaggio, vivono le stesse nostre emozioni." dall'introduzione di Teresa Buongiorno
