She intended to stay \"until I am tired of it,\" but left abruptly in mid-January. \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFilled with biographical references to Louisa's family, New Yorkers of the time and Alcott's literary works, \u003cem\u003eOnly Gossip Prospers\u003c\/em\u003e intertwines the real people Louisa met, the actual events of New York City and a host of fictional characters who inhabit a world that Louisa herself would recognize.
