Sorry that it took some time for me to get back to you.
In this scene from the chapter “New Impressions,” I always thought that this is about Amy’s sexual awakening. The narrator describes that she thought he looked pleasant and she is suddenly quite shy around him.
While Laurie listlessly watched the procession of priests under their canopies, white-veiled nuns bearing lighted tapers, and some brotherhood in blue chanting as they walked, Amy watched him, and felt a new sort of shyness steal over her, for he was changed, and she could not find the merry-faced boy she left in the moody-looking man beside her. He was handsome than ever and greatly improved, she thought, but now that the flush of pleasure at meeting her was over, he looked tired and spiritless — not sick, nor exactly unhappy, but older and graver than a year or two of prosperous life should have made him. She couldn’t understand it and did not venture to ask questions, so she shook her head and touched up her ponies, as the procession wound away across the arches of the Paglioni bridge and vanished in the church.
and there is more, this is where Laurie begins to pay attention to Amy’s looks and character.
That was unpardonable, and Amy took no more notice of him for a long while, except a word now and then when she came to her chaperon between the dances for a necessary pin or a moment’s rest. Her anger had a good effect, however, for she hid it under a smiling face, and seemed unusually blithe and brilliant. Laurie’s eyes followed her with pleasure, for she neither romped nor sauntered, but danced with spirit and grace, making the delightsome pastime what it should be. He very naturally fell to studying her from this new point of view, and before the evening was half over, had decided that ‘little Amy was going to make a very charming woman’.
It is actually quite interesting how well this parallels with Jo’s time in New York and her sexual awakening with Friedrich, and once again supports my theory that LMA planned these marriages years before she wrote Little Women.
I am currently reading “Undine and Sintram” and I was surprised to see that it also has a “triangle”, the male character has two love interests. Undine is the unpredictable one and Bertalda, the other love interest is more grounded and has a more positive influence on the knight, the male protagonist.
Seriously guys, many of these books that are mentioned in Little Women, either have the triangle, or there is Jo and Friedrich or Amy and Laurie — a type of romantic trope within them.
