Seraph on the Suwanee is a 1948 novel by African American novelist Zora Neale Hurston.[1] The novel is her last published novel, and was written after her publisher rejected two novels about black characters.[1]
The novel is Hurston's only novel about White characters, exploring "white crackers" in Florida, attempting to create a "true picture of the South".[1] The novel follows the experiences of a young women as she has a fraught relationship with her husband and family.[2]
The novel has never been well received by African American critics and scholars, often treating the novel as an "contrivance in Hurston's canon".[3]
