Histoire5 out of 5 stars 8
Richard Wright's powerful and eloquent memoir of his journey from innocence to experience in the Jim Crow South. At once an unashamed confession and a profound indictment, Black Boy is a poignant record of struggle and endurance - a seminal literary work that illuminates our own time. The once controversial, now classic American autobiography measures the brutality and rawness of the Jim Crow South against the sheer desperate will it took to survive as a Black boy. Seventy-five years later, his words continue to reverberate.

Histoire4.5 out of 5 stars 116
It is the story of 11-year-old Pecola Breedlove--a black girl in an America whose love for its blond, blue-eyed children can devastate all others--who prays for her eyes to turn blue: so that she will be beautiful, so that people will look at her, so that her world will be different. This is the story of the nightmare at the heart of her yearning and the tragedy of its fulfillment.

Histoire4.5 out of 5 stars 19
In 1927, Zora Neale Hurston went to Plateau, Alabama, just outside Mobile, to interview 86-year-old Cudjo Lewis. Of the millions of men, women, and children transported from Africa to America as slaves, Cudjo was then the only person alive to tell the story of this integral part of the nation's history. Hurston was there to record Cudjo's firsthand account of the raid that led to his capture and bondage 50 years after the Atlantic slave trade was outlawed in the United States. In 1931, Hurston returned to Plateau, the African-centric community three miles from Mobile.

Description
This poetic, graceful love story, rooted in Black folk traditions and steeped in mythic realism, celebrates boldly and brilliantly African-American culture and heritage. And in a powerful, mesmerizing narrative, it pays quiet tribute to a Black woman who, though constricted by the times, still demanded to be heard.
Originally published in 1937 and long out of print, the book was reissued in 1975 and nearly three decades later Their Eyes Were Watching God is considered a seminal novel in American fiction.
Ce que les critiques en disent
"For readers who know Hurston's work, this program will be a joy; for those who are lucky and wise enough to discover her here, it will be an exceptional experience." (AudioFile)

Breath-taking! Stunning, jaw-dropping eloquence
The word pictures will leave you breathless! You will stop in your tracks at the beauty spun before your eyes - a flurry of words and light! The narrator was brilliant!! Trigger warning - this is written in the time of Jim Crow and the language suggests just that. But it's not a story about racial trauma, it's a story about ordinary folks experiencing extraordinary love.

Brilliant
Ruby Dee’s narration of this moving, exquisite book is amazing. I started reading the book to myself but felt I wasn’t doing the vernacular justice so I decided to switch to the audio book. I am so glad I did. Ms Dee brought all the characters to life. They will life on in my mind through her brilliant performance.
As to the book itself it is beautifully written. The descriptions of Janie’s thoughts and self reflection are astute, clear and gorgeously described. I cannot say enough for this wonderful piece of literature

An Audible treasure
The book is brilliant-- poetic, psychologically astute and a good story. It isn't easy to read, because the dialect can pull the reader out of the moment. But listening to Ruby Dee's amazing narration makes it come alive. I highly recommend this audible book, it was enjoyable from start to finish. #Audible1

What a whirlwind.
I hate that the tale sounded like a real life experience. So many emotions, I loved and hated many moments but mostly enjoyed Janie’s story.
