by Margaret Mitchell
Hardcover, 1037 pages
1 September 1936, Scribner
5 stars
This book has become a classic - but the twist that I love is that Scarlett is something of an anti-hero, and the book is set in the American South before, during and after the Civil War, so there are strikes against it being such an amazing, moving book, but it won the 1937 Pulizer Prize, inspired a movie that utterly swept the Academy Awards in the same year that The Wizard of Oz was released.
Cheers,
