Alcott’s first novel, published in 1865 and revised in 1882, is a semi-autobiographical love triangle. Abolitionist Sylvia Yule yearns for romance and adventure, but can she find them in a man’s world? Displaying the influence of Bronte’s Jane Eyre and Hawthorne’s The Scarlet Letter, Moods vividly dramatizes Alcott’s personal struggles of mind and heart.
