The Men From Their Eyes Were Watching God by Zora Neale Hurston In Their Eyes Were Watching God, by Zora Neale Hurston, the reader is offered a particular look at The Janie's life with reference to the men she met. Janie's three men are all very different, yet at one point in her life they were all Janie's husband. Although they all acted differently, in lifestyle and in their relationship with Janie, they all shared some similarities. Janie's first husband was a poor old man named Logan Killicks. He was an ugly, dirty farmer whose main concern for Janie was that she do her share of work to keep the farm up and running. Janie was simply another pair of hands to do some work with. Compared to Janie's second husband, Logan seems indifferent and rude. When Janie first met her second husband, Joe, he was very caring and reassuring: an ideal husband. Joe was an ambitious young man with many goals set for him. And like Janie, he grew up around a white background. Joe strived to be and have the best in everything. However, once Joe had Janie as a wife, he became a jealous and demanding man, just as Logan had been. Joe considered himself a god, his sentences began with "I god..."......in the center of the paper......use it he used it to help himself become mayor. Tea Cake loved Janie for who she was as a woman. All three had completely different things to offer Janie financially, socially, and emotionally. The two rich men loved a woman, the poor man loved Janie.
