Janie Starck is a woman with dreams - big dreams, romantic dreams. But her grandmother knows those dreams will only get her into trouble, for 'de nigger woman is de mule ah de world'. Married at sixteen, Janie soon finds that wedded bliss is just as lonely and confining as her former life and the world is to hold more mystery - and more men - before she decides that husbands are just things to 'drape her dreams over'.
