Winner of the Pulitzer Prize for Literature, Margaret Mitchell’s great novel of the South is one of the most popular books ever written. Within six months of its publication in 1936, Gone with the Wind had sold a million copies. To date, it has been translated into 25 languages, and more than 28 million copies have been sold.

Here are the characters that have become symbols of passion and desire: darkly handsome Rhett Butler and flirtatious Scarlett O’Hara. Behind them stand their gentler counterparts: Ashley Wilkes and Melanie Hamilton. As the lives and affairs of these absorbing characters play out against the tumult of the Civil War, Gone with the Wind reaches dramatic heights that have swept generations of fans off their feet.

Having lived in Atlanta for many years, narrator Linda Stephens has an authentic ear for the dialects of that region. Get ready to hear Gone with the Wind exactly as it was written: every word beautifully captured in a spectacular unabridged audio production.

Quotes & Awards

  • “A masterpiece demands a masterful reader, and the match between Gone with the Wind and Linda Stephens is perfect. In her we have the petulant, youthful Scarlett O’Hara; the blustery, whiskey-drinking Gerald O’Hara; hands-on-her-hips Mammy; saintly Melanie Wilkes; and the bungling Aunt Pittypat. The dreamy softness of Ashley is juxtaposed with the dashing arrogance of Rhett Butler. The supercilious tones of the ladies of Atlanta ring out with heavy disapproval. We can hear in Stephens’ voice the blind spot that is Scarlett O’Hara’s tragic flaw. Stephens delivers absolutely convincing accents of Southerners—white and black. Her timing is flawless, and her use of pause enhances the material in this unhurried, luxurious reading of a great American classic. Stephens is as much at home telling of the ravages of the Civil War as Margaret Mitchell was. Winner of the AudioFile Earphones Award.”

    " Gone With the Wind by Margaret Mitchell Who hasn’t seen the movie version of this book? Multiple times? I didn’t think the story could get more interesting and had never bothered to read the book itself. How wrong could I be? Apparently, very wrong! The book, and specifically the audio book, was so much better than the movie. Not only does the book have incredibly rich detail, but there are portions of the story that are never told, nor even hinted at, in the movie. How long is the movie? Doesn’t matter because the audio book is 49 hours and those 49 hours are totally engrossing. I could not stop listening and did so only if I absolutely had to. The Narrator, Linda Stephens, did an incredible job with the descriptions and the voices. She made the people come alive, each of them equally however different in personality and situation they may have been. I totally enjoyed this audio book and I’m so glad that I have it in my AudiobookStore library because this is a book I’ll be listening to many times. "

    " Seriously im only thirteen and reading this book and it is quiet sad. I just got it a week ago and finished a fourth of the book. Ever had that suspenseful feeling of what will happen in the end and did you ever end up reading the end before the beginning or read the whole book backwards? Well thats what i did and now i hate my self! "

    " Wasted my time. The main character was too selfish and self absorbed. The racism was too raw, not a single black character was given any intellect. "

    " A classic. I will admit sometimes the racism is a bit off putting, but one cannot help but to admire Scarlett's tenacity (despite her pure selfishness). Everyone has a bit of Scarlett in them, and that is what makes her irresistible. "

  • 5 out of 55 out of 55 out of 55 out of 55 out of 5 Dovey | 5/21/2011

    " By far, one of the best books written in the last century. An evocative look at the civil war and post civil war, through the eyes of a southern belle and her comtempories. The only disappointment, for my part, is the failure of the author to produce a sequel by her own hand. "

  • 5 out of 55 out of 55 out of 55 out of 55 out of 5 Karen | 5/21/2011
