A review by jeriklein
Tell My Horse: Voodoo and Life in Haiti and Jamaica by Zora Neale Hurston

dark informative mysterious slow-paced

3.0

Tell My Horse is billed as a memoir about voodoo rituals in Haiti and Jamaica. However voodoo isn’t even mentioned until after page 100 (what?!)

The deep dive into voodoo rituals (when she finally gete there) is worth a read, however her storytelling + overall writing style is just not my cup of tea. With that said, I’m told if you liked her famous novel Their Eyes Were Watching God (which I have not read) then you will greatly enjoy this book.
