Shrewd, Selfish Scarlett: A Complicated Heroine by Karen Grigsby Bates

Totally interesting NPR story that I heard today about one of my favorite (complex) characters of all time.

Necessary evils: Whether plotting a conquest at a picnic or engineering a comeback from poverty, Scarlett O’Hara (Vivien Leigh) had no qualms about doing what it took.

In mourning: Scarlett broods while Rhett Butler (Clark Gable) woos.
