Sykes's 'Sweat'
“Sweat”
In “Sweat,” I think Sykes deserves to die due to how much he tortured his wife Delia. Delia was a very hardworking woman who spent most of her time doing her work as a wash woman. In this story, we see Sykes on several occasions distorting her pile of clothes. He was not a good head of the family and is on other occasions seen beating his wife up. He harasses her, and even tries to force her to quit her job even though she spends her money taking care of the house expenses. Therefore, his death was warranted as it was a way of paying for his mistakes (Hurston and Wall 23).
It is morally right for a person to return a favor to another person who does good by him or her. Sykes’s wife was good to him. She is a hardworking wife but Sykes
