Library of America Anthologies


Two hardbound, but relatively inexpensive (and downright bargain basement cheap given the number of works they include), volumes of Hurston's works are available from something called The Library of America.

Volume 75 is called

Folklore, Memoirs, and Other Writings : Mules and Men, Tell My Horse, Dust Tracks on a Road, Selected Articles

It contains

Of particular interest here are the "Selected Articles". The Harper series of Hurston books that are currently in print cover most of her writings, including the three complete books included in this anthology. But, to my knowledge, they haven't printed the articles that Hurson wrote for a variety of magazines and journals over her life. They are published in this volume.

The other American Library volume (no volume number is given) is

Novels and Stories : Jonah's Gourd Vine; Their Eyes Were Watching God;Moses, Man of the Mountain; Seraph on the Suwanee;Selected Stories

It contains

At a list price of only $35 these are great bargains.
