My beautiful and very old edition of Little Women I picked up in Camden Market! (Taken with instagram)
If God wants me with him there is none who will stop him. I don’t mind. I was never like the rest of you – making plans about the great things I’d do. I never saw myself as anything much… Oh Jo I’ve missed you so. Why does everyone want to go away? I love being home, but I don’t like being left behind. Now I am the one going ahead. I am not afraid; I can be brave like you. But I know I shall be homesick for you, even in heaven.

This building on MacDougal Street is the basis for Mrs. Kirke’s boarding house in Louisa May Alcott’s “Little Women.” I almost teared up when my friend Patty told me that! I love Literary New York City!

Louisa May Alcott published Little Women in 1868. Technically it’s the first of two parts of a single volume - Good Wives followed in 1869. This has never made any sense to me.
So pretty!
