The Color Purple by Alice Walker

“The more I wonder, the more I love.”
~ Alice Walker, The Color Purple

The Color Purple is a beautiful novel about Black women in rural Georgia during the early 1900s. It’s easily the best book I’ve ever read: rich, life-affirming, deeply spiritual and ecological, a true work of art.

I could talk about this book all day. In fact, my brother and I had 2+ hour conversation about The Color Purple with Dr. Jakeya Caruthers for our podcast (below).
