【美国人物志】路易莎·梅·奥尔科特(10/10)
路易莎·梅·奥尔科特(Louisa May ALCOTT) (1832-1888)是一位美国女作家。她出生在宾夕法尼亚州的日耳曼敦，但她的一生却是在靠近马萨诸塞州的康科特城度过的。她自小受当作家和教师的父亲的影响。在父亲的熏陶下，她很早就对写作产生了兴趣。为了帮助维持贫穷的家庭，路易莎在成为专业作家之前不得不靠做女佣、家庭老师和裁缝挣钱。

Her mother tells her to write because that always made her happy. Jo writes a story "that went straight to the hearts of those who read it. " Jo cannot understand how her simple little story became so popular.
Her father explains, "There is truth in it, Jo, that's the secret; You have found your style at last. You wrote with no thought of fame or money, and put your heart into it; You have had the bitter, now comes the sweet. "
Louisa May Alcott's book, "Little Women", is still extremely popular. Women who read the book when they were young often give it to their daughters. Some famous American women even claim they decided to become writers after reading how Jo March became a writer in "Little Women".Jo 最爱的姐姐Beth在很年轻的时候就去世了，这和Alcott的姐姐一样。Jo很不高兴。她妈妈叫她去写作，因为这能让她愉快起来。Jo写的故事直入人心。她自己也很不明白为什么这么简短的小故事可以出名。
他父亲解释道：”这就是事实的真相：Jo,你找到了自己的风格了。你写作不带名利，并且用心去写。一切都是苦尽甘来的规律。“
Louisa May Alcott的小妇人现在仍然很出名。年轻的妇女们读过此书后都会再传给自己的女儿。甚至一些读者读完后也宣称自己要成为想小妇人里的Jo一样的作家。
