Crossing the Creek: The Literary Friendship of Zora Neale Hurston and Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings by Anna Lillios
My rating: 1 of 5 stars
Of the hundreds of books I've read of Florida, this is the worse I've read. Of the ten thousand books of Florida or so in my library, this is likely one of the worse, if not the worse.
The title of this book should be : 'Anna Lillios, Social Justice Warrior, Evolves that Damned Marjorie and Zora to who SHE wants Them to Be!!!'
A great premise nearly entirely ignored for a writers self-righteous politics.
If she had used that title, I would give this book a very high ratings. But the book is named one thing and the interior couches political ideas into a flimsy armature of Marjorie's and Zora's life. If Marjorie was still around she would do a Zelma Cason on Lillios.
I nhate tseeing two esteemed individuals used as crutches for goofy loosely related political views.

Bottom line: I think you get the idea. 0 of ten points.
