Good Wives ch. 12

Snoozecast

Tonight, we’ll read the next chapter of “Good Wives” written by Louisa May Alcott titled “Heartache”. This is also known as the second half of the “Little Women” novel and is considered the 35th chapter as part of that work as a whole.

In the last chapter, Jo tried to make a living by writing sensational stories for a magazine, keeping it a secret from her family. She was successful, but when Professor Bhaer gently criticized such work as shallow and harmful, it made her reconsider. Realizing she was sacrificing her integrity for quick money, Jo burned her manuscripts and decided to stop writing anything she wouldn’t be proud of. Though it meant starting over, it marked a turning point as she chose a more genuine path, guided by her own conscience and the Professor’s encouragement.
