Here is in effect a new book by the universally popular Alcott, a book that reveals an altogether different image of one of America's best-loved authors. \u003ci\u003eA Modern Mephistopheles\u003c\/i\u003e began as a rejected sensational novel and was revised by Alcott for anonymous publication in 1877. Its subject, style, and language mark radical deviations from those expected of Alcott. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eTaming a Tartar\u003c\/i\u003e is a newly discovered Alcott thriller. Originally published as a serialization in Frank Leslie's \u003ci\u003eIllustrated Magazine\u003c\/i\u003e, this astounding page-turner highlights Alcott's feminists leanings. This unique book marks the first general printing of an Alcott story and the first reprinting in some 75 years of a neglected Alcott novel. Both works are closely analyzed in the detailed introduction by Madeleine B. Stern.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ecott \/f Louisa \/i May \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMADELEINE B.
