Loved this book— a sad but triumphant story. The beautiful Janie is first married off to an older man for (according to her grandmother) her own protection as a black woman. She runs off with a charismatic climber who puts her on a pedestal and shuts down her enjoyment of life. She then marries Tea Cake, a younger man, and finally finds happiness. There‘s a dark side to her marriage and a tragic climax but at the end she finds her own voice.
