The Color Purple
de Walker, Alice
The Color Purple is an acclaimed epistolary novel by
American author Alice Walker. Taking place mostly in rural Georgia, this
collection of letters weaves an intricate mosaic of women joined by their love
for each other, the men who abuse them, and the children they care for. In
this, The Color Purple focuses on black female life in the American South
during the 1930s, addressing the numerous issues including their exceedingly
low position in American social culture. The novel received the 1983 Pulitzer
Prize for Fiction and the National Book Award. Because of the explicit content,
particularly in terms of violence, The Color Purple has been a frequent target
of censors, appearing on the American Library Association list of the 100 Most
Frequently Challenged Books of 1990-1999.
