Reseña del editor
Behind A Mask; or, A Woman's Power (1866) by L. M. Alcott, written under her pseudonym, A. M. Barnard, is the story of a woman, struggling to survive in a world dominated by men. Jean Muir, the central character of the story, performs various roles, as a governess, an actress, and an engaged woman, and is ready to lose some, or even all her integrity and identity, in order to achieve her goals. A tale of romance and betrayal, it also brings out the women's issues in the patriarchal and deceptive society.
Biografía del autor
Louisa May Alcott was both an abolitionist and a feminist. She is best known for Little Women (1868), a semiautobiographical account of her childhood years with her sisters in Concord, Massachusetts. Alcott, unlike Jo, never married: ""...because I have fallen in love with so many pretty girls and never once the least bit with any man."" She was an advocate of women's suffrage and was the first woman to register to vote in Concord, Massachusetts.
