Synopsis
MULES AND MEN contains many types of tales, including fanciful myths devised to explain the mysteries of nature and life (why the rabbit has a short tail, why some people are black), imaginative stories about how to defeat the devil or win a loved one, and anecdotes that condemn American injustice toward blacks. Hurston also introduces the reader to the realm of Hoodoo, or Voodoo, and its practitioners. Hurston produced in MULES AND MEN a book that is not only a mine of information for professionals but a source of delight to the general reader.
