Since Zora Neale Hurston's recovery in the 1970s and '80s, researchers have steadily engaged in an ongoing process of what Frances Smith Foster calls "literary archaeology" in an effort to establish who Hurston was, what she thought or believed, what she wrote, and when and where it might have been published.1 Such archaeological work, Foster argues, provides "another part of the puzzle of our past" (633).2 Efforts to recover Hurston's previously unknown or unpublished works have over the last two decades significantly expanded the number of Hurston's works in print, helped to ensure that critics have access to "the sound . . . data" Foster calls for, and spurred explosive growth in Hurston studies. [...]it is only through the transgression of behavioral norms that the Carolines end Oscar's and Mitch's extramarital affairs, keep their marriages intact, and assert their roles as respectable (i.e., un-bull-dozed) wives.
