佐拉•尼爾•赫斯頓(1891-1960),美國黑人女作傢,被譽為“南方的天纔”。在美國第一個黑人小城伊頓維爾,赫斯頓度過瞭無憂無慮的童年;1918年進入霍華德大學就讀文學係,1925年來到黑人文學的中心紐約,開始創作生涯,並成為哈萊姆文藝復興運動的活躍分子。
赫斯頓畢生緻力於保持黑人文化傳統、探尋黑人完整的生命價值。她收集整理瞭黑人民間故事集《騾與人》、《告訴我的馬》,還寫作瞭四部小說:《他們眼望上蒼》、《約拿的葫蘆藤》、《摩西,山之人》、《蘇旺尼的六翼天使》,一部自傳《大路上的塵跡》,以及一些短篇小說。
赫斯頓在小說中大量使用黑人口語,以詩一般的語言去錶達黑人語言之美。她的作品並不著眼於種族鬥爭,而是緻力於錶現:同其他人種一樣,黑人也擁有生活的豐富性和對幸福的追求,也會麵對生活中必然存在的不幸和悲劇。
Book Description
One of the most important works of twentieth-century American literature, Zora Neale Hurston's beloved 1937 classic, Their Eyes Were Watching God is an enduring Southern love story sparkling with wit, beauty, and heartfelt wisdom. Told in the captivating voice of a woman who refuses to live in sorrow, bitterness, fear, or foolish romantic dreams, it is the story of fair-skinned, fiercely independent Janie Crawford, and her evolving selfhood through three marriages and a life marked by poverty, trials, and purpose. A true literary wonder, Hurston's masterwork remains as relevant and affecting today as when it was first published — perhaps the most widely read and highly regarded novel in the entire canon of African American literature.
Hurston's beloved classic--one of the most important American novels of the 20th century--follows the fortunes of Janie Crawford, a woman who was married three times and had been tried for the murder of one of her husbands in the black town of Eaton, Florida.
