Gone with the Wind (Vol. 1 Paperback Edition)

First volume of the greatest love story of the 20th century, which gave rise to the award-winning film starring Vivien Leigh and Clark Gable, in paperback edition.

Gone with the Wind is set in 1861. The southern United States is about to enter the bloody American Civil War. At the Tara plantation in Georgia, the beautiful, impetuous and spoiled young woman Scarlett O'Hara transforms into a practical woman willing to do anything to get what she wants. Frustrated by her inability to marry Ashley Wilkes, Scarlett ends up getting involved with the adventurer Rhett Butler, with whom she will experience one of the most famous and turbulent love stories in literature. The war is intense, and the Yankee siege is incisive, driving the plantation into a disastrous situation of famine and despair. Margaret Mitchell impressively describes the American Civil War and portrays the great changes that paved the way for the history of the United States.

Gone with the Wind is one of the most notable works of American literature. Originally published in 1936, the novel won the Pulitzer Prize the following year. The two volumes portray one of the most famous love stories in world literature, a classic immortalized on film by Vivien Leigh and Clark Gable, winner of eight Academy Awards.
