In a small Black community in the American South at the beginning of the 20th century, Janie Crawford embarks on a life journey that will lead her to challenge the conventions of gender, race, and class. Through three marriages and numerous losses, Janie learns to prioritize her needs, seeking her own voice, true love, and the freedom to be true to herself. With lyrical and powerful prose, *Their Eyes Were Watching God* is an intense portrait of a woman who dares to live fully in a world that often denies her the right to choose. The work, first published in 1937, did not resonate at the time, but today is recognized as one of the great novels of 20th-century American literature, in which Zora Neale Hurston combines oral language, folk wisdom, and vivid narrative to give voice to an unforgettable heroine who refuses to be silenced. Every third Monday of the month, from October to June, Novels to the rhythm of Blues and Jazz. Novels that speak of Civil Rights, the ghetto, persecution, and life on the margins in an America that reeks of racism. Novels that capture the African American spirit, the soul. Novels that are like songs, that protest and love and laugh and fight and bleed and cry. Novels with impeccable rhythm and strong flavors that could change your life. Registration
