Their Eyes Were Watching God by Zora Neale Hurston ISBN: 0060199490 Price: 22.00 View Basket Availability: Usually ships within 24 hours. Publisher/ Date: Harper Collins / 11-2000 Format: Hardcover Synopsis: A luminous and haunting novel about Janie Crawford, a Southern black woman in the 1930s whose journey from a free-spirited girl to a woman of independence and substance has inspired writers and readers for close to seventy years. This poetic, graceful love story, rooted in black folk traditions and steeped in mythic realism, celebrates, boldly and briliantly, African-American culture and heritage. And in a powerful, mesmerizing narrative, it pays quiet tribute to a black woman, who, though constricted by the times, still demanded to be heard. Reviews:
