Scarlett

The Sequel to Margaret Mitchell's "Gone with the Wind"

By: Alexandra Ripley

Narrated by: Linda Stephens

The timeless tale continues....

The most popular and beloved American historical novel ever written, Margaret Mitchell's Gone with the Wind is unparalleled in its portrayal of men and women at once larger than life but as real as ourselves. Now best-selling writer Alexandra Ripley brings us back to Tara and reintroduces us to the characters we remember so well: Rhett, Ashley, Mammy, Suellen, Aunt Pittypat, and, of course, Scarlett.

As the classic story, first told over half a century ago, moves forward, the greatest love affair in all fiction is reignited; amidst heartbreak and joy, the endless, consuming passion between Scarlett O'Hara and Rhett Butler reaches its startling culmination.

Rich with surprises at every turn and new emotional, breathtaking adventures, Scarlett satisfies our longing to reenter the world of Gone with the Wind, and like its predecessor, Scarlett will find an eternal place in our hearts.

Great follow-up!

Given that Margaret Mitchell didn't write this sequel, it's a shockingly good follow-up to the original Gone with the Wind. The same selfishness and self-centered attitude that was a staple of Scarlett's personality in the first book was ever present throughout this second one, from Georgia to South Carolina and across the pond to Ireland. Nobody gets in their own way as much as Scarlett O'Hara does, and it's astounding to witness.

If you loved the whole Book Gone with the Wind

For me there was many long drag out parts that got very boring. Not written as good as the original book but it was a good read to tie up all things at the end

Don’t listen to the bad reviews!

I’m glad I didn’t. The narration is just as superb as in the first book. The story really gave me more insight into the characters and flows well with the first book.

A perfect sequel!

I really loved this story. The writer stayed true to each character's unique qualities and wove a tale of Scarlett's growing into the woman she was meant to be. Each character grew from Gone With The Wind in believable fashion which stayed true to the original work. I found myself so wrapped up in Scarlett's journey I felt like I was living it with her. I found myself completely enthralled by the story. I highly recommend this book!

Awesome Story

This was a perfect sequel to GWTW. Enjoyed it. Could picture it all in your head.
