Publisher Description: Zora Neale Hurston was a key figure in the Harlem Renaissance. Her most famous novel, Their Eyes Were Watching God, a classic in the African-American canon, depicts a woman's struggle for self-empowerment. This work takes a critical look at Hurston's work and its influence on contemporary themes, such as race and gender in American society. |
