Book Review: Gone With the Wind

[@mwangiruo470]

I have read this book in a week in every waking moment...my God!i am astonished by the writer's skill and the book had no slow moment, it was fascinating from start to end.

[@arisann7083]

she’s not so despicable. She’s just a simple survivalist. I feel like everyone thinks that if a book is written about this time the main character should take a stance on race and politics. Scarlet didn’t take a stance on these things because she didn’t care. She’s like an animal. She just wants to survive, have what she wants, and she doesn’t question things that are not immediately relevant to her own interests. But, so what? The points get made in the book anyway through other characters. Scarlet is such a legitimate character. I feel like that could be a real person. She’s not looking for justification. She just is and wants to be and have.

[@KimmyLL1890]

She’s a racist pos. And so is anyone who thinks this disgusting book is good.

[@depressedtv]

I agree to a certain extent, but she definitely screws people over a good bit throughout. She steals her sister's fiance, and she is essentially having an affair with her best friend's husband. And she neglects her kids, etc.

Narcissism is extreme self-involvement to the degree that it makes a person ignore the needs of those around them. While everyone may show occasional narcissistic behavior, true narcissists frequently disregard others or their feelings. They also do not understand the effect that their behavior has on other people. But she also has Sociopathy refers to a pattern of antisocial behaviors and attitudes, including manipulation, deceit, aggression, and a lack of empathy for others. And you wish you could be just like her. Well let's be real you very well maybe.

I can't really blame Scarlett for *spoiler alert* taking Frank Kennedy from her sister, because her sister wouldn't have cared about saving Tara, so the whole family, Melanie, Ashley and all the servants would have been homeless and with no way of making an income or growing their own food.

I agree! Great review. I actually really liked Scarlet 🙈 but frustrated me sometimes. And same with Melanie, I was annoyed with her at the beginning but she really grew on me.

[@oldgringo2001]

Some non-spoiler trivia: * Margaret Mitchell's original name for Scarlett was "Pansy". Her publisher got her to change the name. * "Tara" is named after the ancient seat of the high kings of Ireland. * Leslie Howard, the actor who played Ashley Wilkes, was killed in World War II. * Clark Gable refused to take Southern Lessons, and got the first director of the movie replaced.

[@yeyonge]

What are southern lessons ?

[@austriaco4132]

Leslie Howard was killed during the war not in the war when the plane was attaced

[@nonfictionfeminist]

I. LOVED. THIS. BOOK. I didn't like Scarlett's attitude, but I thought she was so feminist and strong-willed and went for what she wanted, and I really appreciated that. The only thing that really bothered me was all the 'Oh, Ashley!' stuff, because it's just like GIRL. MOVE ON.

[@vickysbooknook]

Non-Fiction Feminist ugh yes, her obsession with Ashley was annoying!

[@user-ms5hc4dv3z]

I think she is not a feminist, but a misogynist. She has no close female freinds except Melanie. She loves power and money, and they were not for ladies in the 17c. But she desperately wants it, and the only thing she can do is making a man love her and willing to do everything for her. That's how she get the tax for Tara from Kennedy.

[@KimmyLL1890]

Yt feminists praising a racist book because the main character is a “feminist” nothing new. Racism is revolting

[@juliannearlene7244]

I think they did a great job with the film. Of course a lot had to be cut out. Vivien did use a slight Southern accent actually. I think Scarlett did care about some people, like her parents and Mammy and Uncle Peter. She was just so driven to survive and take care of everyone and to make sure her kids had everything. Most of the men in her life were rather ineffectual (not Rhett) so she became the man in the family. This is allegorical but I see the new South represented in Scarlett and Rhett and the Old South represented in Ashley. Scarlett's longing for Ashley was Scarlett longing for the old days. GWTW is such a great story with marvelous character portraits. It won the Pulitzer Prize. There is the racism element but you have to consider who wrote it and when and the time period it covered. It is complicated.

[@k-popshot9051]

No spoiler !!! 🚫 Everyone can read , no worries ❤️ I loved the book. I would say, I have never read such an amazing story with so much amotions. You can feel every word when you read it. I was crying at the end. Even though the ending was devastating , I think Scarlet deserved it. I was impressed by Melanie, she was unbelievable character, I truly want to be like her, she was only kindness, never was jealous about Scarlet's beauty, she was so wise and clever woman with beautiful heart, she was amazing mother for Bo, she was like a candle -it consumes itself to light the way for others. This book was a gift from my best friend and I am blessed that I was able to read and realising it deeply. At the end I want to mention how amazing father was Rett. I want every father to be like Rett for their daughters. I love the book deeply, whole my heart. This book became my everything, my best friend. I will definitely read it again many times, because I can't live without those characters.

[@connorpusey5912]

The accents you hear in the film are an attempt at the old fashioned Southern accent, specifically of the plantation class/upper class. It’s like a traditional southern accent combined with a British accent to simplify it.

[@sandrap.6530]

Read this at age 15 during a summer at the beach - 1st grown up book from my Nana'a bookshelf - 43 yrs ago. Every relationship guide you need to get thru life can be found in this book. Today Margaret Mitchell & GWTW are being trashed as racist which is a shame if it prevents people from reading it. I knew slavery & racism was wrong/evil/bad before I read the book & I didn't think otherwise after finishing it. If anything, it explained why this country is where we are now. And the film needs to be seen on the big screen with full Dolby stereo sound to appreciate.

[@homeschooledaroundtheworld4660]

My favorite book of all times was Jane Eyre until I read Gone with the Wind. I’m not American born and read it first in Spanish but immediately feel in love with it. I love Scarlet’s character except for her obsession with Ashley. I wish she had moved on but that is truly part of some people’s life. I admire her survival skills. I also have the book in German and I’m currently very excited because I’m finally fulfilling my dream of reading it in the original language. I love American history and this book has so much history. I cannot understand how this wonderful reading experience has been banned from some libraries and schools. I wish this book was more appreciated. Thank you for your review, it really made my day❤️📚❤️

[@peterlblystone2326]

Some time ago, I acquired a deluxe illustrated edition of GWTW, but not until the movie was shown on TV for the first time in 1976 did I actually get around to reading it. And the experience was well worth it. Of course, much of the book had to be eliminated in adapting it (such as Scarlett's children by each of her first two marriages), but it at least gave the illusion of following the book to the letter. There were a few things about the book that I think Ms. Mitchell could have done better. For instance, early in the story, she devotes many pages to describing Beatrice Tarleton and her horse farm, but she barely mentions the lady afterward. With such a buildup, many readers must have expected her to play a reasonably important part in the story. And Ms. Mitchell pauses the action to give a detailed account of the O'hara family's back story. We definitely don't want to miss that, but I think she could have introduced it more subtly. (Perhaps someone in the story could have asked "How did you two meet?" or something along those lines.) As for the movie, the cast was perfect, and everyone did a superlative job. I enjoyed it very much, and still do whenever I watch it again. But Rhett appeared a little more harsh than he did in the novel. For instance, in the book's bazaar scene, he chose Scarlett as his dancing partner specifically because he could see how much she wanted to dance and how no one else would pick her because she was in "mourning." Later, when Rhett is released from prison and meets Scarlett, rather than visiting her to ask if she still needs the money for Tara, as in the book, he merely chews her out for marrying men she doesn't love. And so on... This is no reflection, of course, on Clark Gable's performance, as the script was continually being rewritten as the movie was filming, and... Well, all in all, both the novel and the movie are great, and their continual popularity are well-deserved. What more can I say?

[@BookBFF]

One day I saw Gone with the Wind on tv and was like I’ll watch this. Didn’t realize it was 100 hours long! Haha My favorite part that had me screaming and cheering at the tv was “Frankly, my dear, I don’t give a damn”. Also, I never had the desire to pick up the book, but your review made me reconsider. Especially since you said you read a few chapters a day and just took your time with it. Great review. Glad I found your channel!

[@playsaboutmycat]

Mitchell captured what is often the essence and nature of human relationships and how they change over time. Although Scarlet states this toward the end of the novel regarding Ashley, many of the characters demonstrate this - it is seeing what one needs or wants to see without objectivity. “I loved something I made up, something that’s just as dead as Melly is, I made a pretty suit of clothes and fell in love with it. And when Ashley came riding along, so handsome, so different, I put that suit on him and made him wear it whether it fitted him or not. And I wouldn’t see what he really was. I kept on loving the pretty clothes-and not him at all.”

Yes, they cut out some Scarlett parts because they were very very afraid that the movie would became a flop because of Scarlett being so ruthless. She is way better in the book.

[@sana31050]

I really liked Rhett Butler and his character development and how he understood Scarlett. Personally, I hated Scarlett tbh. However I think it is kind of nice to see that she tries to be like her mother Ellen. It shows that she did appreciate her mother's kindness and loyalty, which she later sees in Melly too. Thank for the review :)

[@admetric]

At its route Gone with the Wind is a coming of age story of a female set against the Civil War and its aftermath. I still believe the fact that it was about a woman made it so popular because at the time they were very few novels like this. And as people will tell you it is very popular with women in their 40s for some reason. I think it’s because they like to see the coming of age story because they’ve already done it. The irony of it is as we all know Gone with the Wind refers to the change in society as a result of the war the entire novel is about people changing. With the exception of possibly of Ashley, everyone ends up different than how they started. The biggest change is Scarlett and Rhett. At the beginning of the novel they are polar opposites. Scarlet is very family orientated and worries about honor in society. Rhett doesn’t care. He believes that the entire world can go die as he’s gonna live his life as he feels and not listen to anyone else tell him what to do or think. If you follow the story they actually reverse roles. Upon their chance meeting they start moving closer Until the famous burning of Atlanta scene. At this time when they’re in the wagon they pretty much have the same point of view. But as the book progresses Scarlet stops caring what people think and Rhett starts. I read this book, listened to it, and also watch the bad movie (Vivien was to old to play 16!) my favorite part was the story about the siege of Atlanta.

They had an expert dialect coach to teach Vivien Leigh her southern accent and apparently she picked it up very quickly. I read that the coach actually had to tone her down if she sounded too southern. Therefore I believe Vivien Leigh’s southern accent was actually pretty authentic to the time period. Vivien Leigh was British also just like Leslie Howard and she had no hint of being British in this movie. Clark Gable on the other hand refused to learn a southern accent and he got away with it because he was Clark Gable. Leslie Howard’s accent was not very good and sounded British most of the time.

Unlike the film where she only had one child, in the book Scarlett had three. I didn't dislike her... I thought she was a mother, strong and determined to try to rebuild and life she had which had been destroyed. When she did her famous 'as God is my witness...' she had a young child. While the film was certainly a box office success, by removing the two eldest children, Scarlett was portrayed as a self-serving opportunist. I felt her book character was a bit more genuine
