Bronson Alcott's Fruitlands, edited by Clara Endicott Sears, and Louise M. Alcott's Transcendent Wild Vegetables are a unique combination of two works that provide an opportunity to better understand the American literary and cultural milieu of the mid-nineteenth century. In the book, the authors talk about the attempt to create an ideal community in the Fruitlands, which was supposed to be a community living according to the principles of Transcendentalism. They show how this experiment led to great challenges and disappointments, and what important lessons can be learned from this failure. "Bronson Olcott's Fruitlands" and "Transcendent Wild Vegetables" are not only an interesting literary journey into the past, but also an opportunity to think about important issues of harmony between people and nature, society and the individual.
