The main content of the novel Gone with the Wind

The author Margaret Mitchell should have written a book after middle age. Only a woman whose youth has passed away will think of her youth with incomparable deep feelings. Her youth should be the best years of slavery in the southern United States. Scarlett made her debut: snow-white skin, two striking diagonal eyebrows, attractive green eyes like a cat, wearing a newly made skirt, sitting on the porch of her manor with Down twins, surrounded by white dogwood. They are all young, rich and energetic, and do nothing but play and love. At that time, both Tang brothers were jealous for her, while she was planning how to elope with her beloved Ashley. . . Ah, the youth full of white dogwood!

In the cruel background of civil war, fate did not care much for Scarlett. The war made her a widow, and it forced her to face hunger, poverty and changes in social status. She wants to protect her Tao Le Manor and let her family and the Ashley family live. Of course, she also wants a good life. She resolutely abandoned the feminine appearance of the matriarchal southern aristocratic lady and revealed the tough nature of the patrilineal Irish. Relying on the tenacity in her bones and Rhett's deep affection for her, she quickly accumulated a lot of wealth after the war and lived the life she wanted. Unfortunately, she refused to wake up from Ashley's dream and ignored the great love she had received from Rhett. It was not until Melanie died that she could get along with Ashley, and she found that she had been enjoying Rhett's love without knowing it. Rhett quietly left in despair, but she vowed to find Rhett's love again.

The story always has a bleak tone, which seems to describe Hao Sijia's personal fate, but in fact it is about the old aristocratic life of the whole southern society "drifting with the wind" with the end of the civil war. And Hao Sijia's famous "Tomorrow is another day" has also become a slogan for new women to face life.

The characters in the face are obviously like Scarlett. As a woman of that era, she could strive for the greatest benefit for her land. I admire her very much. Rhett's personality is not suitable for that era, but he can be brothers for his daughter and those who appear hypocritical.

In addition to her wisdom, Scarlett has a sense of responsibility to bear the burden of four or five people. She is a little girl at heart. Even after the war, Rhett turned his attention to Bonnie Later, she needed money very much. Psychologically, it is called the pursuit of security. The pain of the war made her feel insecure, so she always dreamed in the fog. Finally, she found that Rhett was the answer to her dream.

I sympathize with this woman, but I can't agree with some of his practices. At that time, it was not easy for him to survive strongly, but love is by no means a capital that one can squander at will! When love is around, remember to know, cherish and care!

The final outcome made me very disappointed and frustrated. I don't know who I really love until I lose it. True love has always been around, but I missed it.

Scarlett and Rhett are the first male and female protagonists in this book, and their images are extremely full. Hao Sijia has a strong vitality and can survive no matter what difficulties. She is not completely dependent on men, but a smart, brave, enterprising and responsible woman. But the most striking thing is her human shortcomings, such as selfishness, vanity and indifference. This makes us feel that this character is not "fictional" but not "perfect". So the characters are more real, plump and moving. In addition, Rhett's male image is highly respected by many women, which I think is mainly due to his persistence in treating feelings. He is a man with political opinions and a firm stand, but he does not forget his roots. He looks cynical, but he loves someone deeply and persistently. The conflict between reason and emotion, indifference and gentleness is a contradictory unity in him. So Rhett's image is "perfect".
