Summary:
"A story of two people at once deeply in love and deeply at odds, set among the community of "
Florida
Crackers" at the turn of the twentieth century. Full of insights into the nature of love, attraction, faith, and loyalty, it follows young Arvay Henson, convinced she will never find true happiness, as she defends herself from unwanted suitors with hysterical fits and religious fervor. But into her life comes bright and enterprising Jim Meserve, who knows that Arvay is the woman for him, and nothing she can do will dissuade him. Alive with the same passion and understanding of the human heart that made "Their Eyes Were Watching God" a classic, Hurston's "Seraph on the Suwanee" masterfully explores the evolution of a marriage and the conflicting desires of an unforgettable young woman in search of herself and her place in the world."--Back cover.
