The Search For The Dead Author

The search for Zora Neale Hurston was taken on by Walker with the accompaniment of her friend Charlotte. they both greatly appreciated the works of zora Neale hurston and thought to figure out what really happened to her and give her the proper brurial. in order to get more information out of people, she tells them she is Hurston's niece. She comes across many different acquaintances of Hurston and each person she meets gives her more information, thus extending the adventures of her quest. Some false information was given to her and Charlotte that upset them. like the fact that she died of malnutrition and it was a very poor and bad burial, but in the end they found out that she died of a stroke and she was very loved by her community. while trying to figure out the background and history of Hurston she starts believing that she really is related to Hurston. By hearing all of the views of the community that Hurston grew up with, Walker starts agreeing with what she thought Hurston would've sided with. So really she starts realizing her culture and heritage through the discoveries of Zora Neale Hurston's life.

Janies Life

Laying under a verdant tree,
thats where youll find the lovely janie.
Reflecting on life in her many ways,
janie tries to find love in what seems like a desperate place.
looking off into the horizon is where she sees her dreams,
but being crushed by men is always what it seems.
Married twice and still no love,
Janie's love life is like a glove.
she has the catch of the town
 but is always feeling down.
At the death of her husband might be a gleam,
of light, that proves.
maybe this life is more than it seems?

the year of questions and answers

 "There are years that ask questions and years that answer."  Write a speculative response on what the upocoming year will hold for Janie.  Will this eyar be the year that asks questions or one that answers them?  Will this be the year that does both?  Respond to at least three peers.

In Janies flashback, this is the year that she has asked and questioned herself about marraige and love, like the way she thinks love will begin to happen after she marries logan, but too bad it didnt. then one day she met a man by the name of Joe Starks and continued meeting him and then one day she built yp the courage and ran off, left logan and married Joe. The upcoming year is going to answer all of her questions, but then it might spark up a few more. This upcoming year is going to be very interesting for the newly wedded Mrs. Janie Starks.
