What has been recovered throws new light on the children's books and asks us to question our assumptions about the supposedly staid and sentimental Alcott. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ci\u003e\u003cb\u003eAlternative Alcott\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e includes works never before reprinted, including \"How I Went Out to Service,\" \"My Contraband,\" and \"Psyche's Art.\" It also contains \u003ci\u003eBehind a Mask\u003c\/i\u003e, her most important sensation story; the full and correct text of her last unfinished novel, \u003ci\u003eDiana and Persis\u003c\/i\u003e; \"Transcendental Wild Oats\"; \u003ci\u003eHospital Sketches\u003c\/i\u003e; and Alcott's other important texts on nineteenth-century social history.

Elaine Showalter has provided an excellent introduction and notes to the collection. \u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Rutgers University Press","offers":[{"title":"Alternative Alcott (None) | Louisa May Alcott | Paperback | 0813512727 | Used: Like New | Back Stacks G 1766786","offer_id":49376955957400,"sku":"1766786","price":9.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/1609\/4360\/files\/61ucNcEBwkL.jpg?v=1783023737","url":"https:\/\/roundaboutbookstore.com\/products\/alternative-alcott-none","provider":"Roundabout Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
