Eyes Journal 3

I've noticed that Hurtson makes Janie appear as the type that will do what you tell her to do without saying anything in reply. No back talk not even an opinion or a reply of "yes". I feel like Hurtson created her as two points of view. One would be Janie's side, where she does not talk but really wants to get involved with all of the towns peoples conversations and events. She is seen as more of the person who stands by and watches everything happen from the sidelines.  Shes not really taking control of what is happening she is just taking orders. The other side i saw was Janie as almost a thing. She was considered very high class and beautiful, made to stand out of the crowd and not in comparison to any other woman in the entire town. Jody pretty much sets this up himself, making her wear more outstanding and expensive attire than that of the ordinary woman-folk. Why doesn't Janie ever speak up for herself and get involved? Is it because of Jody holding her back?
