Their Eyes Were Watching God (Paperback, Reissue)

Originally published in 1937, Their Eyes Were Watching God brings to life a Southern love story with the wit and pathos found only in the writing of Zora Neale Hurston. Out of print for almost thirty years—due largely to initial audiences’ rejection of its strong black female protagonist—Hurston’s classic has since its 1978 reissue become perhaps the most widely read and highly acclaimed novel in the canon of African-American literature.

Fair and long-legged, independent and articulate, Janie Crawford sets out to be her own person—no mean feat for a black woman in the '30s. Janie's quest for identity takes her through three marriages and into a journey back to her roots.

My favourite book!

What an incredibly written book! It’s officially my favourite. When Alice Walker mentioned Zora Neales influence on her writing, I knew I had to experience it. Beautiful
