At the end of the novel, Janie returns to Eatonville where the novel began to finish telling Phoeby her story.
Zora Neale Hurston includes personification in her novel to illustrate certain events with a deeper perspective. For instance, "the monster began to roll in his bed," (Hurston 158.) Through this statement, Hurston personifies the hurricane as a monster, because it results as destructive and evil upon the characters in the novel. Also, "he had the whole round world in his hands," (Hurston 158.) This use of personification as well illustrates the hurricane as God determining the character's lives and environment. If the hurricane results as mild, the characters will not be greatly affected by the hurricane; however, the hurricane result as destructive, demolishing "the round world." Zora Neale Hurston's development of personification throughout her novel overall exemplifies the hurricane as an evil occurrence obliterating the lives of many.

Her comment was that Mrs. Tony should not be trusted.
Hardworking, basically. It's very upbeat and casual. It's a woman's journey to find what she wants in life. There are many moods. It depends on what part, etc. There is no right or wrong answer for this book concerning the mood.
I think her main point is that love can come in many different forms, and there is unrequited love, love of security, and love of love. In the beginning when she is discussing marriage with her grandma, it is a foreshadow of the types of love that she would encounter.
