Opis

This fully edited volume contains nine of Zora Neale Hurston's unpublished plays at the Library of Congress, including three of her full-length plays: Polk County, Cold Keener and De Turkey and De Law. This book is expected be a major contribution to American literary scholarship as it portrays customary African American life in the 20th century through a highly nonconformist African American lens. Zora Neale Hurston is a world-renowned author, best known for her fiction and folklore, including her novel Their Eyes Were Watching God (1937), and her autobiography, Dust Tracks on the Road (1942).
