Critics Review
There is no book more important to me than this one. It speaks to me as no novel, past or present, has ever done
Their Eyes Were Watching God is one of the very greatest American novels of the 20th century. It is so lyrical it should be sentimental; it is so passionate it should be overwrought, but it is instead a rigorous, convincing and dazzling piece of prose, as emotionally satisfying as it is impressive. There is no novel I love more. - Zadie Smith
