Margaret "Peggy" Mitchell was born on November 8, 1900 in Atlanta, Georgia. Her father was a historian and lawyer, and her mother was a suffragist. When she was 15, she wrote, "If I were a boy, I would try for West Point, if I could make it, or well I'd be a prize fighter - anything for the thrills."
In 1918, Mitchell graduated from Washington Seminary and began to study medicine at Smith College.
Margaret Mitchell's greatest contribution to literature was her "Gone With the Wind," which she began writing in 1926 and published in 1936. At the time of its publication, the book sold more copies than any other American novel in literary history. The story centers around the life and times of Scarlett O'Hara, a Southern woman. Mitchell was awarded the Pulitzer Prize and the National Book Award.
The novel has been published in 40 countries, with many critical studies and articles.

Sometimes only remembered for the epic motion picture and "Frankly ... I don't give a damn," Gone with the Wind was initially a compelling and entertaining novel. It was the sweeping story of tangled passions and the rare courage of a group of people in Atlanta during the time of Civil War that brought those cinematic scenes to life. The reason the movie became so popular was the strength of its characters--Scarlett O'Hara, Rhett Butler, and Ashley Wilkes--all created here by the deft hand of Margaret Mitchell, in this, her first novel.

评分玛格丽特·米歇尔一辈子只写了一本书,但是就因为这一本书她就永垂不朽了。米歇尔热情如火,狂野放纵,坦率无比。在《飘》里看不到让你反感的矫情和造作的抒情,也看不到道德的说教,米歇尔就是在酣畅淋漓地讲一个爱情故事,她没有野心,或者压根没有兴趣去描绘哪些崇高的东西...
评分看这个大部头时我在想为何作者给女主人公取Scarlett这样的名字。也许scarlet(鲜红色)象征她鲜明的叛逆性格,也许scar能反映出她饱受感情的创伤。给男主人公起Ashley这个名字,作者Mitchell也应蕴含深意,Scarlett对Ashley的迷恋最终不是化为灰烬(ash)吗。Ashley就像泡沫,...
刚才理书柜翻出来,是高二买的生平第一本原版小说。打五颗星全出于对当时这本书带给我乐趣的回忆。。。。
评分史詩,從南方角度寫的史詩。一場悲哀的內戰,犧牲了一兩代人,給美國帶來了永久的和平。值得還是不值得,都隨風而逝了。P.S. 如果可能其實我更願意打4.5分而不是5分。
评分虽然是书摊上的盗版,但还是大爱~一遍遍的回味。
评分读的第一本外文书
