This is a deeply moving story of one woman's search for love in this world. Although narrated by Hurston, the first and last chapters are "framed" around two long-lost friends who meet on a back porch. The book is a journey through the South and a testament to the hunger and fulfillment that love provides for each of us. This concise supplement to Hurston's Their Eyes Were Watching God helps students understand the overall structure of the work, actions and motivations of the characters, and the social and cultural perspectives of the author.
