The Color Purple by Alice Walker


"The Color Purple is the story of Cecil. She is raped when she is a young girl and then is married off to Albert. Albert is cruel and is in love with Shug Avery. Shug is a famous entertainer. The letters Cecil writes are to her sister who is in Africa who has not written Cecil back in years. The story is about women, their strengths, and their struggles. The book is about a hard life but it keeps true to the idea that what goes around comes around and good things come to those who wait. "
