Rhett Butler

Gone with the Wind

Well-educated, masculine, mysterious and equipped with a smooth southern drawl, Rhett Butler is one tall drink of water. He’s a man of conviction and a solid match for Scarlett, whose shoot-from-the-hip style leaves most men withered. But not Rhett, who finds himself increasingly attracted to Scarlett’s inner strength as the novel progresses.

I’m not asking you to forgive me. I’ll never understand or forgive myself. And if a bullet gets me, so help me, I’ll laugh at myself for being an idiot. There’s one thing I do know… and that is that I love you, Scarlett. In spite of you and me and the whole silly world going to pieces around us, I love you. Because we’re alike. Bad lots, both of us. Selfish and shrewd. But able to look things in the eyes as we call them by their right names.
