Margaret Mitchell (November 8, 1900-August 16, 1949) was a famous American writer, who won the Pulitzer Prize in 1937 for her novel Gone with the Wind, her only major publication. She was born in Atlanta, Georgia. She once received a doctor degree of literature. She was struck by an automobile on her way to see a film with her husband. And after 5 days, she died. /// It was her life experience and unfortunate love that made her is able to describing a beautiful and sad love story in the Civil War. When she was a little girl, her grandma often told her about the history of their family and some war stories. Imaging herself lived in the past; she made up many small stories where she was a hero in a war. All of these became materials when she wrote Gone with the Wind many years later./// At 18 years old, she met a young handsome officer, Clift Henry, who was the Wesley in her heart. Pretty soon, they fell into love. But he lost his life in the First World War, which brought lifelong sad to Mitchell. And I think perhaps she used Starlet’s crazy love to Wesley to lament her first boyfriend. Her mother’s death made her father lose the courage and motivation of life, as Starlet’s father got mad after his wife died. /// Like Scarlet, Mitchell was born a rebel girl. She got married with a bad-tempered and cold bully. Not surprisingly, this marriage came to an end shortly afterwards. Even though she cheered up again, she often felt the shadow of failed marriage for the rest of her life./// In 1944, she got married again. Her husband Marsh was a reporter, who had loved and supported Mitchell for many years. Without Marsh’s encouragement, Mitchell couldn’t finish Gone with the Wind. She spent nearly 10 years on writing the novel. It took her half of a year to check the time and place of historical events in her novel. /// But because of the publication of Gone with the Wind, her life became a tragedy. For half of a century, the 1000-page novel has been translated into more than 30 languages and sold more than 20,000,000 copies. Overnight success changed her life thoroughly. In one of her letters, she said:” I never imagined a writer’s life would be like this. If I had known before, I would never try to becoming a writer.” Only in the first week, hundreds of readers sent her copies and requested her to sign on the copies and send the copies back to them. She was a woman who loved quiet and simple life, but copyright issues made her is involved in a series of legal affairs. So, it is not hard to understand why from finishing Gone with the Wind to dying in 1949 she had never published any work. /// Still, Gone with the Wind is enough to establish her unshakable position in the history of world literature. 本文来源：https://www.dywdw.cn/f04e3ed0ce2f0066f5332251.html
