A woman in Florida tells a friend about her three marriages and the life she chose.

Talk about it

  1. What does Janie want from a marriage, and does it change over the book?
  2. Why do you think the story is told to a friend on a porch?
  3. Which of the townspeople's judgements of Janie did you share, if any?

Questions we wrote from what the book covers. They don’t give away the plot. How we pick. For more, try our questions for any book.
