講述一名黑人女性反抗傳統習俗禁錮，爭取女性自我權利、愛情的勵志故事。全書作者Zora Neale Hurston特別以黑人方言口吻書寫，讀者猶如身歷其境，親身體會主角Janie Crawford必須面對的族裔認同、多元族群衝突下的庶民生活、性別權益意識……見證那抹從性別、種族、語言等傳統禮教束縛中覺醒的無畏身影。
 
“A deeply soulful novel that comprehends love and cruelty, and separates the big people from the small of heart, without ever losing sympathy for those unfortunates who don’t know how to live properly.” —Zadie Smith
 
One of the most important and enduring books of the twentieth century, Their Eyes Were Watching God brings to life a Southern love story with the wit and pathos found only in the writing of Zora Neale Hurston. Out of print for almost thirty years—due largely to initial audiences’ rejection of its strong black female protagonist—Hurston’s classic has since its 1978 reissue become perhaps the most widely read and highly acclaimed novel in the canon of African-American literature.
