I live in Concord, Mass., a town about 20 miles west of Boston. Rich in revolutionary and literary history, it has been home to Henry David Thoreau, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Nathaniel Hawthorne and the Alcott family. The quote “She is too fond of books and it has addled her brain” is from Work: A Story of Experience by Louisa May Alcott .
