ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

The Color Purple by Alice Walker tells the story of Celie, a young African American woman living in the early 20th century American South. The novel follows Celie's journey as she endures hardship and abuse at the hands of the men in her life. She finds solace and strength in the relationships with the other women in her life, particularly her sister Nettie and her friend Shug Avery. Through these relationships, Celie learns to find her voice, to value herself, and to question the norms of her society. The story explores the themes of race, gender, and the search for self-identity, and the transformative power of love, forgiveness, and sisterhood.
