Pressezitat
'Reading Hurston, you always wonder what shape her dignity will take next. Her style and spark were her own.' The New York Times 'Fierce, insightful and often devilishly funny, her satirical writing is particularly biting.' The Observer
'In these essays, which cover themes of race, gender and politics, her writing is characterised by an impish relish that remains both shocking and invigorating today.' Financial Times Online
'You Don't Know Us Negroes adds immeasurably to our understanding of Hurston, who was a tireless crusader in all her writing, and ahead of her time. Though she was often misunderstood, sometimes maligned and occasionally dismissed, her words make it impossible for readers to consider her anything but one of the intellectual giants of the 20th century. Despite facing sexism, racism and general ignorance, Hurston managed to produce a written legacy that, thanks to enduring collections like this one, will engage readers for generations to come.' The New York Times Book Review
'This collection recognises one of the finest writers of the 20th century.' The Sunday Express
