Da Margaret Mitchell, Premio Pulitzer nel 1937, un capolavoro immortale della letteratura statunitense. Leggi la famosa epopea di Rossella O’Hara in una nuova e moderna traduzione. “Via col vento” è un capolavoro senza tempo, un esempio lampante dell’altissima capacità creativa e narrativa di Margaret Mitchell, uno spaccato di storia di una nazione ancora in via di sviluppo, un estratto pungente e dettagliato di una società isolata e retrograda, una lunga e sofferta storia d’amore. Leggendo questo romanzo e guardando il film del 1939 di Victor Fleming si viene catapultati in un mondo antico ma non così tanto, un mondo che ha il sapore della terra rossa e del cuoio, del sudore e delle lacrime, del sangue e della polvere da sparo. È un viaggio incredibile che oggi, a quasi un secolo dalla stesura dell’originale, ancora affascina persone di qualunque età e di qualunque estrazione culturale. È un viaggio nella vita di Rossella O’Hara, Rhett Butler, Ashley Wilkes, Melania Hamilton; di decine di personaggi entrati ormai nell’immaginario collettivo. È un viaggio senza tempo.

Vom Wind verweht ist ein Klassiker der amerikanischen Literatur, eine abenteuerliche Liebesgeschichte, vor allem aber das große Epos des amerikanischen Bürgerkriegs, ein Pendant zu Krieg und Frieden, das Andreas Nohl und Liat Himmelheber zum ersten Mal vollständig ins Deutsche übertragen haben. Jeder kennt die tragische Liebesgeschichte von Scarlett O'Hara und Rhett Butler, wenn auch oft nur aus dem Film, in der Gestalt von Vivien Leigh und Clark Gable. Der Film gilt als einer der erfolgreichsten der Filmgeschichte, aber auch das Buch, das 1936 erschien, war umgehend ein Bestseller und wurde schon 1937 ins Deutsche übersetzt: Keine Geschichte hat unser Bild von den Südsaaten, dem amerikanischen Bürgerkrieg und der Zeit der Reconstruction so sehr geprägt wie Margaret Mitchells Gone With the Wind. Vom Wind verweht, die erste Neuübersetzung seit 1937 – zugleich die erste ungekürzte Übersetzung in deutscher Sprache –, folgt dem schnörkellosen, journalistischen Stil von Margaret Mitchell und lässt uns so fast einen anderen Roman lesen. Natürlich ist es immer noch das große Epos des amerikanischen Bürgerkriegs, die tragische Liebesgeschichte und die Geschichte einer jungen Frau, die ihr Leben selbst in die Hand nimmt. Doch die Neuübersetzung von Andreas Nohl und Liat Himmelheber vermeidet den romantisierenden Stil, die rassistischen Stereotypen und den teils kitschigen Ton der Übersetzung von 1937 und zeigt uns einen Roman, der moderner und ambivalenter ist als das verklärte Bild, das wir bisher hatten. Diese Neuübersetzung ist nicht nur ein viel größerer Lesegenuss, sie gibt uns auch – endlich – die Möglichkeit, Vom Wind verweht richtig zu lesen: als den epischen amerikanischen Roman, der Konflikte und Brüche beschreibt, die die USA bis heute prägen.

Set in the historical frame of the War of Secession (1861-1865) and in the times preceding and following the battle, Lo que el viento se llevo is an impassioned novel that is almost impossible to put down. Romanticism, passion, pain, nostalgia and a surprising vitality are embodied in the unforgettable protagonist, Scarlett O'Hara, whose charismatic character, next to personalities like Rhett Butler, the kind-hearted Melly, or Ashley the dreamer, requires no introduction.

The prodigious childhood talent of the author of "Gone With the Wind" is brought to life in this collection of writings published on the 100th anniversary of her birth. 24 photos.

Until recently, the odd thought Margaret Mitchell had only one story to tell: Gone With the Wind. Now meet a heroine to match Scarlett: Courtenay Ross, a feisty, independent-minded woman, and the two men -- one a cool-headed, well-heeled gentleman, the other a hot-blooded, pugnacious sailor -- who adore her. A tale of yearning, valor, and devotion, Lost Laysen enthralls from its delightful beginning to its unforgettable end. Equally intriguing is the story behind the story -- the real-life romance that inspired Mitchell: how she gave the original manuscript as a gift to her beau. Henry Love Angel, and how the manuscript, along with Mitchell's intimate letters and treasured photographs, were lovingly safeguarded only to be discovered decades later in a shoebox Lost Laysen is pure magic, a gift for us to cherish from America's most beloved storyteller.
