The gem of this, the second of a two-volume Library of America set, is Hurston's extraordinary memoir, Dust Tracks on a Road. The first volume, which featured Hurston's novels and short stories, made me fall in love with Hurston the writer. Dust Tracks made me fall in love with Hurston the human being.

I have never read anything by Alice Walker. Don't know anything about her really. But I, indeed all readers, owe her an enormous debt for her rescuing from oblivion a writer who, to my mind, ranks among America's greatest.
