TEWWG Chapter 13-15

In this part of the book Janie and Tea Cake travel to 'The Muck' in the Everglades. In The Muck everyone works, the women, the children, and the men. Everyone does something during their time there. While they're at The Muck Janie starts to come to the realization that Tea Cake is her ideal man. She is truly in love with him. I find it interesting because when Janie was with Jody, he made her work and would abuse her if she didn't. It's different with Tea Cake, though. She loves him and is willing to work for him. In the one situation with Jody she is forced to work but with Tea Cake she wants to work for him just to keep him interested in her.
