Their Eyes Were Watching God
by
Zora Neale Hurston

 

Mesmerizing in its immediacy and haunting in its subtlety, Their Eyes Were Watching God tells the story of Janie Crawford—fair-skinned, long-haired, dreamy woman—who comes of age expecting better treatment than what she gets from her three husbands and community. Then she meets Tea Cake, a younger man who captivates Janie's heart and spirit, and offers her the chance to relish life without being one man's mule or another man's adornment.

Reviewed by Elle
"I read this book in one sitting--and it's not often that I do that. Absolutely wonderful--Janie is a character that I identify with, and Hurston constructs the novel so beautifully, that I enjoyed every page of it."
