They embarked on a journey together, traveling in Hurston's dilapidated car through the rural southern US, collecting folklore. They worked on the play \"Mule Bone\" and exchanged countless loving letters, showcasing their deep bond. Notably, they shared the same patron: Charlotte Osgood Mason, a wealthy white woman who insisted on being called \"Godmother.\" Mason lavished them with generous payments while attempting to exert control over their work. It is believed that their bitter falling-out was sparked by Mason's involvement. In this captivating video, Yuval Taylor delves into the details of their split, shedding light on Hurston's and Hughes' lives, work, competitiveness, and ambition.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\n                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 600g\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 233 x 165 x 27 (mm)\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780393243918\n                            \n                          \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Yuval Taylor","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44100136567034,"sku":"9780393243918","price":18.31,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/06cd1684c81429cf1c348bf984056598.jpg?v=1625282238","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/zora-and-langston-a-story-of-friendship-and-betrayal","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
