This paper will give a brief introduction of the novel and its writer Margaret Mitchell. The second part of the paper analysis Scarlett’s personality. Firstly, she is selfish and greedy; she uses all kinds of means to gain profits. She believes in individualism. Her selfishness and vanity is the direct factor leading to her three purposeful marriages. Secondly, she is trustworthy. This personality makes her never give up the help to Melanie who is her rival in love just for her promise to Ashley. Thirdly, she had an indomitable spirit to dare to face the reality and do not bow to fate. This personality makes her return home and assume the whole family’s burden and fight against the fate without cowardice and grow to maturity. “Tomorrow is another day”. This is the best confession to her optimistic life and her perennial interpretation of destiny.
