Ambientato nel Sud degli Stati Uniti nel periodo della Guerra Civile, Via col vento apparve nel 1936, quando il ricordo del sanguinoso evento era ancora ben vivo nella coscienza di molti americani. Rossella O''Hara, la giovane capricciosa e viziata protagonista del romanzo, affronta le avversita con spirito di conquista; incapace come il suo popolo di "riconoscere la sconfitta anche quando se la trova di fronte", si appresta ad andare incontro al futuro pensando che "dopo tutto, domani e un altro giorno".La societa americana che si stava risollevando dalla profonda crisi economica iniziata dopo il crollo della borsa del 1929 accolse con un entusiasmo senza precedenti il messaggio del romanzo, facendolo entrare a buon diritto, anche grazie alla memorabile trasposizione cinematografica con Clark Gable e Vivian Leigh, tra i classici della letteratura contemporanea.
