Editorial Reviews

Editorial Reviews

“A masterpiece demands a masterful reader, and the match between Gone with the Wind and Linda Stephens is perfect…Stephens delivers absolutely convincing accents of Southerners—white and black. Her timing is flawless, and her use of pause enhances the material in this unhurried, luxurious reading of a great American classic. Stephens is as much at home telling of the ravages of the Civil War as Margaret Mitchell was. Winner of the AudioFile Earphones Award.” AudioFile
“Beyond a doubt one of the most remarkable first novels produced by an American writer. It is also one of the best.” New York Times
“The best novel to have ever come out of the South…it is unsurpassed in the whole of American writing.” Washington Post
“Fascinating and unforgettable! A remarkable book, a spectacular book, a book that will not be forgotten.” Chicago Tribune
