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.

Love isn't enough to make a successful marriage when two people are as different as we are. You would want all of a man, Scarlett, his body his heart, his soul, his thoughts. And if you did not have them, you would be miserable. And I couldn't give you all of me. I couldn't give all of me to anyone. And I woud not want all of your mind and your soul. And ou would be hurt, and then you would com...

She would have to see it through, bear all the malice of the girls and her own humiliation and heartbreak. To run away would only give them more ammunition.引自 VI
She, Scarlett O'Hara, was lying behind a negro cabin, in the midst of ruins, too sick and too weak to move, and no one in the world knew or cared. No one would care if they did know, for everyone had too many troubles of their own to worry about her. And all this was happening to her, Scarlett O'Hara, who had never raised her hand even to pick up her discarded stockings from the floor or to tie...

She, Scarlett O'Hara, was lying behind a negro cabin, in the midst of ruins, too sick and too weak to move, and no one in the world knew or cared. No one would care if they did know, for everyone had too many troubles of their own to worry about her. And all this was happening to her, Scarlett O'Hara, who had never raised her hand even to pick up her discarded stockings from the floor or to tie the laces of her slippers--- Scarlett, whose littl eheadaches and tempers had been coddled and catered to all her life.
When she arose at last and saw again the black ruins of Twelve Oaks, her head was raised high and something that was yough and beauty and potential tenderness had gone out of her face forever. What was past was past. Those who were dead were dead. The lazy luxury of the old days was gone, never to return. And as Scarlett settled the heavy basket across her arm, she had settled her oen mind and her own life. There was no going back and she was going forward. 引自 XXV
Why, she had never had to do a thing for herself in all her life. There had always been somone to do things for her, to look after her, shelter and protect her and spoil her. It was incredible that she could be in such a fix. Not a friend, not a neighbor to help her. There had always been friends, neighbors, the competent hands of willing slaves. And now in this hour of greatest need, there wa...

Why had he gone, stepping off into the dark, into the war, into a Cause that was lost, into a world that was mad? Why had he gone, Rhett who loved the pleasure of women and liquor, the comfort of good food and soft beds, the feel of fine linen and good leather, who hated the South and jeered at the fools who fought for it? Now he had set his varnished boots upon a bitter road where hunger tramped with tireless stride and wounds and weariness and heartbreak ran like yelping wolves. And the end of the road wass death. He need not have gone. He was safe, rich, comfortbale. But he had gone, leaving her alone in a night as black as blindness, with the Yankee Army between her and home. 引自 XX
If she could only reach the kind arms of Tara and Ellen and lay down her burdens, far too heavy for her young shoulders --- the dying woman, the fading baby, her own hungry little boy, the frightened negro, all looing to her for strength, for guidance, all reading in her straight back courage she did not possess and strength which had long since failed. 引自 XX
She was seeing things with new eyes for, somewhere along the long road to Tara, she had left her girlhood behind her. She was no longer plastic clay, yielding imprint to each new experience. The clay has hardened, some time in this indeterminate day which had lasted a thousand years. Tonght was the last time she would ever be ministered to as a child. She was a woman now and yough was gone. 引自 XX

Scarlett O'Hara was not beautiful, but men seldom realized it when caughtby her charm as the Tarletton teins were. In her face were too sharply blended the delicate features of her mother, a Coast aristocrat of French descent, and the haevy ones of her florid Irish father. But it was an arresting face, pointed of chin, square of jaw. Her eyes were pale greenn without a touch of hazel, starred with bristly black lashes and slightly tilted at the ends.Above them, her thick black brows slanted upword,cutting a starting oblique line in her magnolia-whiteskin --that skin so prized by Southern women and so carefully guarded with bonnets, veils and mittens against hot Georgia suns.
Seated with Stuart and Brent Tarletion in the cool shade of the porch of Tara, her father's plantation,that bright April sfternoon of 1861, she made a pretty picture.

Seated with Stuart and Brent Tarletion in the cool shade of the porch of Tara, her father's plantation,that bright April sfternoon of 1861, she made a pretty picture. Her new green flowered-mudlin dress spread itd twelve yards of billowing material over her hoops and exactiy matched the flat-heeled greed morocco slippers her father had recently brought her from Atlanta. The dress set off to perfection the seventeen-inch waist, the smallest in three counties, and the tightly fitting basque showes breasts well matured for her sixteen years. But for all modestyy of her spreading skirts, the demureness of hair netted smoothly into a chignon and the quietness of small white hands folded in her lap, her true self was pooriy concealed. The green eyes in the carefully sweet face were tubulent, willful, lusty with life, distinctly at variance with her decorous demeanor. Her manners had been imposed upon her by her moeher's gentle admonitions and the sterner discipline of her mammy; her eyes were her own.

Ween he saw her standing in the mud, Mr Wilkes drew rein with a smile of pleasure and, dismounting, came toward her. "I had hoped to see you, Scarlett. I was charged with so many messages from your people. But there was no time. We just got in this morning and they are rushing us out immediately, as you see." "Oh Mr Wilkes," she cried desperately, holding his hand. "Don't go! Why must you go!" ...

"I had hoped to see you, Scarlett. I was charged with so many messages from your people. But there was no time. We just got in this morning and they are rushing us out immediately, as you see."
"Oh Mr Wilkes," she cried desperately, holding his hand. "Don't go! Why must you go!"
"Ah, so you think I'm too old!" He smiled, and it was Ashley's smile in an older face." Perhaps I am too old to match but not to ride and to shoot."...He was laughing now, turning away from her tears. 引自 XVIII
"...I wouldn't have ever let you come upon this porch at all, if I hadn't been feeling so blue, and ---"
"Sit down and smooth your ruffed fur," he said, and his voice changed. He reached up and taking her hand pulled her back into her chair. "Why are you blue?" 引自 XVIII
But I do like you tremendously --- for the elasticity of your conscience, for the selfishness which you seldom trouble to hide, and for the shrewd practicality in you which, I fear, you get from some not too remote Irish-presant ancestor. 引自 XVIII

斯嘉丽一贯的“明天”再说。
Chapter XVI 是第二部分的结尾。在第二部分里面,内战尚没有延伸到南方,斯嘉丽新寡来到亚特兰大这个仍然欣欣向荣的小城镇。所有的南方人仍然保有着他们固执的骄傲,无视现实的乐观和深入骨子里的忠诚。 斯嘉丽开始在瑞德的伴随下,尝试着挑战世俗条框,抛弃传统,放纵自己。梅兰妮看到了被人诟病的瑞德实际上有一颗宽容、尊重、金子般的心。 艾希礼回了亚特兰大过圣诞节,使梅兰妮怀孕,并再一次屈从于自己的肉欲,拥抱、亲吻了斯嘉丽,他之后在战役中被俘。战争在不可避免的跌向深渊,物资紧缺,物价疯涨,投机倒把,大发国难财的人(包括瑞德)开始肆虐。
