how do we know that Jannie grand mother loved the gift
Answers
Answer:
Janie is the book’s protagonist. At the time the book was written strong, independent female characters like Janie were unheard of. Janie is raised by her grandmother who has the mentality that Janie should be married off at a young age. Janie puts up with this forced, unhappy marriage for awhile and then decides she can take no more. A revelation under a blossoming tree symbolizes the start of a new journey for Janie: what she wants from her own life. One of Janie’s motivations is to experience the world in her own way, through her own eyes. She begins a quest for self-definition, love and freedom. One of the most compelling things about this character is her independence and her awareness of a life that she wants to change. Throughout the book we see an important transition from Janie at the beginning of the book to Janie at the end. There is a striking resemblance between the life Janie is trying to lead and that of the author of the book.
