About this listen

Warm, witty, imaginative.... This is a rich and winning book. The New Yorker

Dust Tracks on a Road is the bold, poignant, and funny autobiography of novelist, folklorist, and anthropologist Zora Neale Hurston, one of American literature s most compelling and influential authors. Hurston s powerful novels of the South including Jonah s Gourd Vine and, most famously, Their Eyes Were Watching God continue to enthrall readers with their lyrical grace, sharp detail, and captivating emotionality. First published in 1942, Dust Tracks on a Road is Hurston s personal story, told in her own words. The Perennial Modern Classics Deluxe edition includes an all-new forward by Maya Angelou, an extended biography by Valerie Boyd, and a special section featuring the contemporary reviews that greeted the book s original publication.
