Character Role Analysis

Joe

Okay, so we could argue that Joe isn't the only protagonist, but he's certainly our main man, since we follow him throughout the entire story. We know his deepest feelings and thoughts (like wanting to have a baby with Missie) and we sympathize with his hardships, namely, dealing with the aftermath of discovering his wife with another man. We like Joe and we hope he can work things out with Missie. We're rooting for you, man.
