Description
Debby's Debut (1863) by Louisa May Alcott is a triangular romance about Debby and her two suitors. Her aunt is trying to get her married to a wealthy man. It is a lighthearted comedy of manners that boldly challenges the social order that holds wealth and social status more important than character and moral values. The author has clear feminist convictions and presents Debby as a modern, independent woman.
