A powerful cultural touchstone of modern American literature, The Color Purple depicts the lives of African American women in early twentieth-century rural Georgia.
Separated as girls, sisters Celie and Nettie share the pain and struggle of growing up as African American women in early 20th-century rural Georgia.
Deeply compassionate and beautifully imagined, The Color Purple broke the silence around domestic and sexual abuse.
But there is hope and there is triumph as these women grow through companionship, resilience and bravery.
Alice Walker is the author of seven novels, including Pulitzer Prize winner The Color Purple, The Third Life of Grange Copeland and Now is the Time to Open Your Heart; three collections of short stories, In Love & Trouble, You Can't Keep A Good Woman Down and The Way Forward is with a Broken Heart; as well as eight volumes of poetry.
Alice Walker lives in Northern California.
