I think that all of Janie's conflicts thus far can be generalized as Janie v. society. In the first conflict that we see, which is Janie against Nanny, Janie is trying to fight against society's norms - which is for Janie to be married and 'protected' from the world. Janie tries to fight this, yet ultimately society wins this fight since Janie ends up marrying Logan anyways. In the next conflict, which is Janie v. Jody, Jody tries to impose his rules (and ultimately society's rules) on Janie by keeping her confined and unable to express herself freely. Although it seems like Joe is winning this conflict, at the end it is Janie who triumphs against Joe's and society's rules. I guess we would have to wait and see if there is a conflict between Janie and Tea Cake (something tells me there will be), and whether Janie will triumph against him too.Ayeshahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05218978803775458461noreply@blogger.com
