Description: The Color Purple, Alice Walker. 10th Anniversary Edition. Harcourt Inc. 1992. First Edition 5th or 6th Printing (with "F" the lowest letter.) Signed by author on the title page. Originally published in 1982, THE COLOR PURPLE won both the Pulitzer Prize and the National Book Award for Fiction. Celie has grown up in rural Georgia, navigating a childhood of ceaseless abuse. Not only is she poor and despised by the society around her, she's badly treated by her family. As a teenager she begins writing letters directly to God in an attempt to transcend a life that often seems too much to bear. Her letters span twenty years and record a journey of self-discovery and empowerment through the guiding light of a few strong women and her own implacable will to find harmony with herself and her home. The Color Purple's deeply inspirational narrative, coupled with Walker's prodigious talent as a stylist and storyteller, have made the novel a contemporary classic of American letters.
