A 5 page paper based on the argument that author Zora Neale Hurston wrote more with an eye to authenticity than to the conventions of the times in which she wrote. Published in 1948, 'Seraph on the Suwanee' was the last novel written by Hurston, and was also one of her lesser-known. All of her works, however, included a measure of to-the-point sexuality, presented in the context of a matter-of-fact part of life rather than for any anticipated 'shock value.'

My Antonia
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. The duality of Willa Cather's portrayal in My Antonia represents the inherent dichotomy that exists between beauty and fear. Eloquently depicted and especially appealing to the senses, My Antonia is far more than a book that one reads, experiences, sets down and then forgets; rather, it is one that transcends the literary boundaries that separate reality from fantasy. The writer discusses how the haunting interpretation of a pioneer woman's difficult life is filled with aesthetically entrancing visuals, as well as formidable and unpredictable changes of such an existence. No additional sources cited.
