In this essay I use Their Eyes Were Watching God (1937) as a test case, and show how the text that is most identified with the literary Hurston participates in a critical interrogation of the discourse of modernity from the point of view of a subject on its margins. The reading list is geared toward children from kindergarten through high school, and includes titles such as Their Eyes Were Watching God by Zora Neale Hurston, Things Fall Apart by Chinua Achebe, Through My Eyes: The Autobiography of Ruby Bridges by Ruby Bridges and Bigmama's by Donald Crews. The "giving" of others--that is, the deaths exchanged in order for a narrative to be produced--can be seen, for example, in the deaths of Starks and Tea Cake in Their Eyes Were Watching God as well as the deaths of short story protagonists like John Redding ("John Redding Goes to Sea"), Spunk ("Spunk"), and Sykes ("Sweat"), among others. |
