Beskrivelse
Emily and I combined our powers and had an in-depth chat about Laurie Lawrence, his character arc and the lack of it in every-single-little-women adaptation. In the novel, Laurie starts out as a very idle and sometimes pretty misogynistic figure and it is thanks to Amy he becomes a better person, but these elements of him are not in the adaptations.
One of the most downloaded episodes of the Little Women Podcast, 150 Year Laurie problem, makes a deep dive into Laurie's character and compares the book's narrative to the several Little Women adaptations, which consistantly keep erasing his character arc.
As a long-time, die-hard Unga Kvinnor fan, I LOVE this podcast! I stumbled upon it while doing research for a book series I was working on, and I am addicted! Niina is super knowledgeable in all things LW, from the book(s) to the movies and author Louisa May Alcott's real life. I love that the discussions are based on the book and highlight the differences (sometimes controversial) between the original and newer adaptations. Highly recommended for anybody who loves getting lost in the world of Meg, Jo, Beth, and Amy March. - Jen Brady, Author of the March Sisters Sweet Romance
