Features: Seventy years ago, Margaret Mitchell ended Gone with the Wind with Rhett Butler leaving Scarlett. But with Scarlett's inner monologue, a foreshadowing of their future entanglement was planted: "I'll think of a way to get him back tomorrow. After all, tomorrow is another day." Half a century later, Southern American writer Alexandra Ripley was chosen from hundreds of candidates to continue the story of Gone with the Wind. After multiple revisions, she finally wrote the story of "tomorrow" – Scarlett, the sequel to Gone with the Wind. The author vividly portrays Scarlett's emotional entanglements with Butler, Ashley, and several other men, revealing her complex feelings for Butler, her homeland of Ireland, and her Irish family – a mix of love and disdain. The book is filled with gripping and heart-wrenching descriptions.
