''The Wind Done Gone'' (2001) is the first novel written by Alice Randall. It is a bestselling historical novel that tells an alternative account of the story in the American novel ''Gone with the Wind'' (1936) by Margaret Mitchell. While the story of ''Gone with the Wind'' focuses on the life of a wealthy slave owner, Scarlett O'Hara, ''The Wind Done Gone'' tells the story of the life of one of her slaves, Cynara, during the same time period and events. The title is an African American Vernacular English version of the original's title. Cynara's name comes from the Ernest Dowson poem ''Non sum qualís eram bonae sub regno Cynarae'', a line from which ("I have forgot much, Cynara! gone with the wind") was the origin of Mitchell's novel's title as well. == Plot summary == ''Gone with the Wind'' revolves around O'Hara, a pampered Southern woman, who lives through the American Civil War and Reconstruction. ''The Wind Done Gone'' is the same story, but told from the viewpoint of Cynara, a mulatto slave on Scarlett's plantation and the daughter of Scarlett's father and Mammy. Sold from the O'Haras, Cynara eventually makes her way back to Atlanta and becomes the mistress of a white businessman. She later leaves him for a black aspiring politician, eventually moving with him to Reconstruction Washington, D.C.
