Morning Book Discussion

Seminar Room. Discuss great titles and make new friends! This month, group leader Megan Nicholls will lead a discussion of Their Eyes Were Watching God by Zora Neale Hurston. Copies will be available at the Circulation Desk for checkout prior to this event. This Month’s Pick: Their Eyes Were Watching God by Zora Neale Hurston One of the most important and enduring books of the twentieth century, Their Eyes Were Watching God brings to life a Southern love story with the wit and pathos found only in the writing of Zora Neale Hurston. Out of print for almost thirty years—due largely to initial audiences’ rejection of its strong black female protagonist—Hurston’s classic has since its 1978 reissue become perhaps the most widely read and highly acclaimed novel in the canon of African-American literature.
