""..she began to stand around the gate and expect things. What things? She didn't know exactly. Her breath was gusty and short. She knew things that nobody ever told her. For instance, the words of the trees and the wind. .. She knew the world was a stallion rolling in the blue pasture of ether. She knew that God tore down the old world every evening and built a new one by sun-up. It was wonderful to see it take form with the sun and emerge from the gray dust of its making. โ€"

"Put aside the historical, social, and political issues surrounding this novel (check out Walker's essay, "In Search of Zora Neale Hurston," published in Ms. Magazine in 1975) and how the novel has contributed to countless literary traditions (Harlem Renaissance literature, American Southern literature, American feminist literature)โ€”the real reason everyone should read Their Eyes Were Watching God is that it's a damn good book."
