- 6635: Their Eyes Were Watching God: Janie Crawford
- ... her own identity and resolving not to live lost in sorrow, bitterness, fear, or romantic dreams. Like most lives of black women of the early 20th century (or any time for that matter), Janie Crawford's life, told here in her own sure voice, is not without its frustrations, terrors, and tragedies &mdash in fact, it is full of them. But the power of her story comes from her life-affirming ... that Janie expresses her own will toward self-definition. Their Eyes Were Watching God has been called the first African American feminist novel because of its portrayal of a strong black woman rebelling against society's restrictions &mdash and the received wisdom of her Nanny, no less &mdash to seek out her own destiny.
