This paper focuses on Zora Neale Hurston's exploration of feminine space and the way she viewed the African Americans in a very fragmentary way borrowing from the post- colonial theory Homi Bhabha's concept of "third space" and from Stuart Hall's concept of "becoming" and "positionality." It also explores the concept of space in selected novels by Hurston, using Edward W. Soja's and Henry Lefebvre's idea about the multiplicity and hybridity of third space in favor of negating the plurality of space, taking it at the end to apply on gender in her chosen fiction.
