So far I'm Reading Gone With The Wind. It Is an extraordinary book. It is filled with romance, hate, war and many other things. I would recommend this book to anyone who would be looking for a great book to read.
I'm up to where Rhett Butler left Scarlett With Melanie, who is extremely sick, her own infant, Melanie's child, and her slave, Prissy. It is pretty horrible how Scarlett treats Prissy. She pinches her and yells at her for no reason and tries to make a reason out of it. It is really mean. I know that in the 1800's whites are superior to blacks and they own blacks, but Scarlett would never do that. She's always been nice, and selfish, jealous and other bad things. I guess that she's taking her feelings that she's had the past years on Prissy.
Anyway Scarlett has wasted all of her energy trying to go back to Tara. The trip was about 15 miles away from where Rhett left her. Melanie has been a big responsibility for her and her child. The newly borned baby was dying of hunger and thirst. Luckily, Prissy's Mother, Dilcey, fed the baby milk. I feel a very good and strong connection between Pork's family and the O'hara Family. They've known each other for more than 20 years. They are like family. It sort of warms my heart knowing that Pork and his family are slaves to the O'haras but they treat themselves nicely.
So this is where I'm Up to. I can't wait to find what will happen next!
