"Life is a train of moods like a string of beads; and as we pass through them they prove to be many colored lenses, which paint the world their own hue,
and each shows us only what lies in its own focus." Emerson. This quote opens the story of Sylvia, an intelligent and "unreasonable" 19th century young woman, who has to choose between the two men who love her. But every choice has consequences. This is the first serious book for adults by the author of the best-selling "Little Women". It is as lively and sharp. Perfect for the same fans, and for fans of George Eliot who wrote much about the same topics. - Summary by Stav Nisser. (9 hr 55 min)

Excellent story, the readers left something to be desi

(4 Sterne)

The story was not your usual Louisa May Alcott children's story. The ending was not a happy one, although the story yet self was well rip hand and definitely worth the kind. A couple of the readers however were difficult to listen to. The reader from Vancouver B.C. was very slow and sometimes appeared to lose her place. Another of the readers was very monotonous. However I am still glad that I took the opportunity to listen to this story that I had not heard before.

Not a children's book

I had never heard of this title from LMA. After reading it, I understand why. It's fairly revolutionary coming from the author of Little Women, dealing with the ideas of impulse vs. rationality and love vs. duty. It's not her best book, but it's worth a listen.

very nice book but sad ending

Would recommend to listen to if you like depressing romances. I did struggle with being able to hear some of the readers voices.

Excellent Book Hard to Listen to Readers
