On Tuesday, morning, I wrote a review for Gone With The Wind at Amazon and later found it had been deleted. This was most of my review..
I’m glad this book is fiction because no one would possibly believe it if it wasn’t. Scarlett O’hara in Mitchell’s own words “was not beautifulâ€Â…(matter of fact, you later discover that she is downright homely in so many words) but somehow, she is able to get all the guys, and they fall madly in love with her the second they meet her just because she acts desperate and dresses like a s**t.
Later, Scarlett O’hara goes on to have three children by three different men and Rhett Butler somehow still “wants†her with all of that baggage even when I‘m sure that as handsome as he is portrayed, he could have had his pick of several 20 year olds that had none and were at least pretty. Despite this book starting a conspiracy against beauty, it is blatantly racist. (cut off) Please read on...
