A Celebration of Zora Neale Hurston

All these words from the seller, but not one word from the sold. Upon the recent re-discovery of Zora Neale Hurston’s Barracoon, her never-before-published, first-person account of the Alabama man believed to be the last living person captured in Africa and brought to America on a slave ship, contemporary writers pay tribute to the author of Their Eyes Were Watching God by reading favorite passages from across her work.
