Book Reviews of Gone with the Wind

Book Review: Gone with the Wind- Review for English Class
Summary: 5 Stars

When I first picked up Gone with the Wind, it seemed impossibly large. However, halfway through the second page, I began noticing that the words were flying by, and my world was slowly grinding to a halt. Everything stopped so I could continue reading. The book was absolutely enthralling. The chemistry and romance between Rhett and Scarlett was so incredibly well written that I could see sparks flying out of their eyes, and here the firecrackers crackling as they traded insults. Even if they didnt know that they were perfect for eachother, we knew. After reading this book, I have come to the conclusion that, not only is Margaret Mitchell a phenomenal American writer, but she also is one of the best people to describe the South during and around the Civil War time period. She completely deserved the Pultizer Prize that she won, and I will continue to pass on the message about this amazing book. Such an archetypal novel should be timeless; it will never die out or become obsolete.

Summary of Gone with the Wind

Margaret Mitchell's epic novel of love and war won the Pulitzer Prize and went on to give rise to two authorized sequels and one of the most popular and celebrated movies of all time.

Many novels have been written about the Civil War and its aftermath. None take us into the burning fields and cities of the American South as Gone With the Wind does, 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.

Mitchell, Margaret Books
