March: Pulitzer Prize Winner (A Novel)
About this product
Winner of the Pulitzer Prize--a powerful love story set against the backdrop of the Civil War, from the author of The Secret Chord.
From Louisa May Alcott's beloved classic Little Women, Geraldine Brooks has animated the character of the absent father, March, and crafted a story "filled with the ache of love and marriage and with the power of war upon the mind and heart of one unforgettable man" (Sue Monk Kidd). With "pitch-perfect writing" ( USA Today ), Brooks follows March as he leaves behind his family to aid the Union cause in the Civil War. His experiences will utterly change his marriage and challenge his most ardently held beliefs. A lushly written, wholly original tale steeped in the details of another time, March secures Geraldine Brooks's place as a renowned author of historical fiction. Read more
Editor's Take
Amazon reviewers say March is compelling, thought-provoking, and beautifully written, with many readers praising its vivid historical detail, complex characters, and moving portrayal of the Civil War era. Goodreads reviewers echo that it is a powerful, highly regarded Pulitzer Prize winner, while other book review sources describe it as a deeply engaging and emotionally resonant historical novel.
Across the available review sources, the most common praise is for Geraldine Brooks’s prose, the book’s emotional weight, and the way it expands the Little Women universe through Mr. March’s perspective. I did not find verifiable YouTube watch links in the gathered results, so the video list is empty.
- Amazon reviewers: gripping, descriptive, and worth reading.
- Goodreads reviewers: widely appreciated Pulitzer Prize-winning historical fiction.
- Book review sites: strong praise for its depth, craft, and moving storytelling.
