Their Eyes Were Watching God

A classic of black literature, it tells with haunting simpathy and piercing immediacy the story of Janie Crawford's evolving selfhood through three marriages. Fair-skinned, long-haired, dreamy as a child, Janie grows up expecting better treatment than she gets until she meets Tea Cake, a younger man who engages her heart and spirit in equal measure and gives her the chance to enjoy life without being one's man mule or another man's adornment.
