520 $aPresents collection of short stories--found in Hurston's archives after her death--about love and migration, gender and class, racism and sexism that proudly reflect African American folk culture in Harlem in the 1920s. Brought together for the first time in one volume, they include eight of Hurston's lost Harlem stories, which were found in forgotten periodicals and archives. These stories challenge conceptions of Hurston as an author of rural fiction and include gems that flash with her biting, satiric humor, as well as more serious tales reflective of the cultural currents of Hurston's world. --Adapted from publisher description.
