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.
假如,当年出演斯嘉丽的是凯瑟林赫本,而阿希里的演员不是那么老而且一如原著里描写的,一个金发璧眼的骑士般的美男子,那么会不会有如此多的人说,我爱瑞特,我喜欢斯嘉丽。 真的么,当真女人喜欢瑞特,而不是阿希里?希望做斯嘉丽,这个我相信,但是现实中真有哪个男人会象瑞...
評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,...
評分从前觉得女神在感情上任性傻气,才会望着水中月,不惜手边福。近来改变原先的想法,这段破裂的婚姻里,男神不用承担一点责任么? 瑞德娶思嘉的时候就如他所说,知道她心里有别人,他觉得婚后会让老婆爱上自己。可是他怎么做的呢?所行所为只有一个宗旨,就是不让老婆知道自己...

評分人真是怪。十几年前读《飘》的时候,我是喜欢郝思嘉的。可最近,无意中拿起旧书重读,却深深地被媚兰吸引住了。难道是年龄的缘故,人的思想真的会改变的吗? 哪个年轻女孩看了《飘》不喜欢郝思嘉呢?漂亮不说,又聪明倔强,周围总有男人围绕着。特别是有瑞德这样有魅...
十遍譯文也比不上一遍原著帶來的震撼大
评分把這麼厚的英文書啃完真的超級過癮!(雖然最後幾章因為太迫切地想看下去很多句子單詞已經沒有深究瞭)還是得誇對白的感染力啊!!(真的要感謝讀寫課,在我看瞭個開頭的時候正好上到美國南北戰爭,看到課文中熟悉的戰場名稱和戰役名稱真的超級親切!還順便研究瞭下美國地圖,補瞭點地理知識= =)
