Fire!!: The Zora Neale Hurston Story by Peter Bagge

5.0

Graphic Biography of Zora Neale Hurston. Don't skip the endnotes; they add a lot of background info and the commentary is sometimes hilarious. The author sometimes admits the limitations of himself as a white man writing a biography of such an iconoclastic black author, but it's hard to imagine anyone capturing everything about Hurston (except perhaps for the lady herself, teamed up with an interviewer, who would then have a catastrophic falling out with her afterwards). Author/Artist has also done a bio of Margaret Sanger, and I can't wait to check it out (from the library).
