shes wrong abt florida being better than california but i forgive her

"in the next world, we'll meet at a barbecue" beautiful

good memoir leaves you wistful for people you never met. love her descriptions of the froends and great loves of her life

The more I read this book, the more I am struck by Zora's ability to just get shit done.

I adore all of the songs she details in the Florida chapter! She's such a stunning ethnographer

when she talked about how warm and loving Boas was, I teared up icl. Papa Franz 🩷

the similarities with Teacake....it is so fascinating to see where Hurston draws from her personal experiences
