Willburn English 335 7 June 2013 Realism in Zora Neale Hurston’s “Sweat” In Zora Neale Hurston’s short story “Sweat” the author uses rhythm and repetition to shape her theme of survival and empowerment by simulating labored and conscious footsteps‚ rhythmic pounding of sledge hammers along a chain gang‚ and the loud beats of an anxious and overworked heart.
