Her recently discovered first novel, The Inheritance, written when Alcott was just 17, offers readers a fascinating look at the birth of a remarkable career.

The Inheritance, set in an English country manor, is the story of Edith Adelon, an Italian orphan brought to England by Lord Hamilton as a companion for his children. With a charm reminiscent of Jane Austen's novels, Alcott's plot sets love and courtesy against depravity and dishonor -- and with the help of a secret inheritance, allows virtue to prevail.In their Introduction, Joel Myerson and Daniel Shealy relate their fortuitous discovery of Alcott's manuscript draft of The Inheritance (preserved at the Houghton Library of Harvard). They explore the forces -- both literary and personal -- that shaped the novel, and study how it foreshadowed Alcott's later work.

Love this stuff!
Decided to give this a shot after watching one of my favorite influencers always raving about it for acne-prone, rosacea, sensitive skin people! I couldn’t be happier with it. I’m absolutely going to be reordering. It’s cooling, absorbs nicely, and my skin LOVES it! This product does not irritate my super sensitive skin, it’s a high quality product. I use this with the cleanser and the pro-bio serum both from skin 1004. They’ve all became staples in my skincare routine. Love the ingredients in these products, they’re so calming and soothing!

Skin 1004 moisturizer
Best skin care out there. It is not greasy. It makes your skin feel heavenly. There’s very little fragrance to it, and it is compatible with any skin type in my opinion. Great addition to any skin care routine!
