The paper discusses about the novel Little Women which is fully capsulated by girls and women, and it's a known thing none in the world possess same characteristics even though they are siblings. Each differs in their own way of thinking, executing things and achieving their goals. Here the different women characters of the novel Little Women display their feminity or womanhood. The paper strove for a realistic middle ground between the heroines’ vengeful disregard for convention found in thrillers and the adherence to the idea of proper "True Womanhood" proposed in much of the popular literature of the day.
