Examine the literary double life of this celebrated author, who wrote scandalous works under a pseudonym. The Alcott family was a hub of antebellum reformist thought in Massachusetts. Led by her father, Amos Bronson Alcott, members of the family advocated radical ideas for the time: Abolition, vegetarianism, women's suffrage, and public education. Some of these ideas echoed in his daughter's narratives. (Elizabeth Marvel and Jane Alexander star in the film).
