A Barnard-educated anthropologist, folklorist, and novelist, Hurston was a modern woman on the move. As Cheryl R. Hopson illustrates, this dynamic movement is reflected in her work as a collector of folklore.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHopson also highlights how the Jim Crow legal system in the United States created the material backdrop for Hurston's life and works. The discussion includes Hurston's signature novel, \u003ci\u003eTheir Eyes Were Watching God\u003c\/i\u003e, as well as her lesser-known works. This biography offers an insightful and illuminating look at a remarkable figure, chronicling the rediscovery of Hurston years after her death.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"NewSouth Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46847430787308,"sku":"9781789147957","price":34.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/28008613482824.jpg?v=1758939932","url":"https:\/\/bookhero.pro\/products\/zora-neale-hurston-by-cheryl-r-hopson-9781789147957","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
