Dust Tracks on a Road by Zora Neale Hurston

Used. Paperback. Zora Neale Hurston didn't just walk through twentieth-century American literature; she danced, dazzled, and documented the folklore of the South with unmatched anthropological flair. In this magnetic memoir, the famed novelist and Harlem Renaissance luminary traces her remarkable trajectory from an Eatonville childhood to the intellectual epicenters of her time. Her prose is as fiercely independent and delightfully sharp as she was, trading tired self-seriousness for a masterclass in living out loud. It is a brilliant, brassy self-portrait of an artist who flat-out refused to stay in anyone else's narrative box.
