Zora!: The Life of Zora Neale Hurston

180 pp. | Clarion | August, 2012 | Trade ISBN 978-0-547-00695-6 $17.99
(2) YA Documenting the life of Zora Neale Hurston can present a challenge because she often lied about herself in print, beginning with the year of her birth. The Fradins make discrepancies part of the story, using Hurston's autobiographical tall tales to give readers a strong sense of her. Illustrated with carefully selected photographs, this biography is pleasurable as well as informative. Timeline. Bib., ind.
