She moves through various jobs—housekeeper, actress, governess, companion, seamstress—encountering friendship, tragedy, and injustice along the way. Drawing from Alcott's own workforce experiences, the story explores women's labor, personal independence, social reform, and mental health in the years surrounding the American Civil War.
