An Online Interactive Reading of "Sweat"


Interested in what lies beneath the surface of ordinary words in "Sweat?"

Or in the author's intended significance for places and objects that never would have occurred to you as a casual reader?

Thanks to the web, click here to link to a version of the story produced by faculty and students at U. of South Florida with inserted hyperlinks to explanations of important terms, symbols, and objects in the story. Even though we move on from Hurston and "Sweat" to the next Module come October 4, some of you will choose to write about "Sweat." This version of the story might give you some rich insight. It's also an illustration of what a powerful resource you have at your disposal in the Internet.
Use resources like this to do your best!
