The Color Purple. A novel by Alice Walker. Translated by Ólöf Eldjárn.
Celie is a poor and uneducated black girl growing up in the American South in the early 20th century. Abused from childhood, beaten and rejected, forced into a loveless marriage, barely able to read or write, she sits down and writes a letter to God – because he is the only one she trusts and stands by her, apart from her sister who is far away. And little by little, Celie learns to fight for her life and gains the courage to laugh, to frolic and finally to love.
The Color Purple is one of the most famous works of American literature in recent decades and has received numerous awards and recognitions, in addition to being adapted into a film by Steven Spielberg. The author, Alice Walker, is a well-known activist who has published novels, short story collections, and poetry collections, but The Color Purple is her most famous work.
