Really interesting insight to Ms. Hurston's life, though at times I felt like I was intruding on something private by reading her correspondence. But I think you truly learn the person more by listening/reading the words from their mouth/pen than by reading the words of someone else about them.

It was a bit long but I liked learning about this woman and how she created one of the classic works despite being so down trodden.
