Dust Tracks on a Road : An Autobiography

Rating:
Summary: the timeless tale
Review: Whenever I think of Ms Hurston, I smile while I am sad. Her life story is a joyous song and while still a judgement on society and an insight on Black America at that time. she was extremely funny and apparently a very kind woman. She was also a wonderful writer and talented one. Her prose was a gift that few can duplicate. If you are into women writers, you must include all her books. If you want to write, you must study her style. You will not be able to put it down and will be upset when you finish because you want there to be more beyond the last page.

Summary: An excellent, thoughtful book.
Review: While I enjoyed this book, it is far from her best work. Zora seemed to ramble in this book -- and it is widely believed that she fabricated several stories contained within. I would recommend "Their Eyes" and "Jonah's" before reading this book...
