Dust Tracks on a Road: An Autobiography by Zora Neale Hurston

challenging dark emotional funny hopeful inspiring sad tense

4.0

Hurston's writing style is outstanding: she effortlessly interweaves tragic stories of racism with witty anecdotes that are embellished by her overwhelmingly lovable spirit. She doesn't cater to comforting her abusers, but makes her own personal choice to insert joy into her autobiography; an interesting choice that she quite clearly revels in, which is simply delightful. The book's content is perfectly balanced, the writing is excellent: truly a fantastic autobiography.
