Number of Pages 3

This research paper: 3 pages in length. The extent to which Zora Neale Hurston's How It Feels To Be Colored Me and Marita Bonner's On Being Young - A Woman - And Colored reflect the particular predicament of being a young black woman during the Harlem Renaissance is both grand and far-reaching. The lucid and uncomplicated images each author creates with her seemingly uncomplicated style are anything but; in fact, the complexity that resides within their characteristically simple prose, which demonstrate a purity and precision like no other, are known only to those who can see beyond their façade. Attention to outer detail and an unquenchable desire to portray their inner pain, both Hurston and Bonner favor a more simplistic approach to convey the immense pain and suffering they endure throughout their colored lives. No additional sources cited.
