Text wrapping around a div

Question

How do you get the text to wrap around a div if you want the div on the bottom of a container?

I can figure out how to get the text to wrap around the div as long as its on top, but if I try and push it to the bottom of the page, the text either doesn't continue across the top of the div or the div gets pushed in front of the text.

You just need to work with float property.

HTML:

<div>
    <img src="http://www.igta5.com/images/trailer-2-gtav-logo.jpg" alt="GTA V" />

        Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.

Update

With pure CSS, the most that you will get is manually spacing the sides of image with absolute positioning.

The HTML:

<div class="left">
