Gone with the Wind

About the book

Margaret Mitchell's epic novel of love and war won the Pulitzer Prize and went on to give us one of the most popular and celebrated movies of all time. Gone With the Wind is about the Civil War that take us into the burning fields and cities of the American South, creating haunting scenes and thrilling portraits of characters so vivid that we remember their words and feel their fear and hunger for the rest of our lives. In the two main characters, the white-shouldered, irresistible Scarlett and the flashy, contemptuous Rhett, Margaret Mitchell not only conveyed a timeless story of survival under the harshest of circumstances, she also created two of the most famous lovers in the English-speaking world since Romeo and Juliet.
