Louisa's Favorite Books
by Louisa May Alcott
Louisa May Alcott listed her favorite books in a journal entry when she was 20 years, and resolved to read them in 1852. Read more of Alcott's letters and poems in Louisa May Alcott: Her Life, Letters, and Journals (1889).
1852.--Made a resolution to read fewer novels, and those only of the best.
List of books I like:–
Carlyle's French Revolution and Miscellanies. Hero and Hero-Worship. Goethe's poems, plays, and novels. Plutarch's Lives. Madame Guion. Paradise Lost and Comus. Schiller's Plays. Madame de Staël. Bettine. Louis XIV. Jane Eyre. Hypatia. Philothea. Uncle Tom's Cabin. Emerson's Poems.
