An Old-Fashioned Girl скачать fb2

"The author of «Little Women» seeks, and not without success, to draw from her «Old-Fashioned Girl» a contrast and a moral. She presents to our view two young ladies of opposite «styles.» One is fresh and rural: the other isn't. The difference is about as great as that between the warbling of woodside birds and the jingle of one of Offenbach's tunes on a corner barrel-organ."—Book Notice from Punchinello, April 30,1870.
