Alice Randall’s The Wind Done Gone is an outright parody of Margaret Mitchell’s Gone with the Wind. This work consists of 114 journals which Cynara has written to find clarity from her traumatic and sorrowful life. In this article, I analyze various features of her journals and their roles in changing Cynara’s perspectives and soothing her traumas. Randall grapples with the harmful Mammy figure and docile slave stereotypes in Gone with the Wind and introduces wise and trickster-like blacks to depict new black characters and correct wrong and twisted representations of antebellum South and Reconstruction era. Continuous and tenacious journal writings enable Cynara to face her traumas courageously, analyze her surroundings as well as intricate, unfathomable and interconnected human relationship in detail, and finally forgive unforgivable people including her mother and Other. After finding clarity and inner peace, she chooses to be an unmarried mother who can stay close with Congressman and his wife, and her beloved son, Cyrus who becomes a catalyst of her true love and high self-esteem. At the end of this novel, she seems to be transformed into a free bird which has silenced strong traumas, and is ready to soar into the sky freely and waits for tomorrow’s wind.
