The Color Purple
There's also the side story, just as important, about the relationship between blacks and whites and the lack of understanding or consideration between the two.
Nettie's time in Africa also illustrates the conflicts between different groups of blacks (the Africans who stayed in Africa and the ones who were sold) as well as the encroachment of the British Empire into Africa.
There's a lot going on in this little book. It's a fast read that will stay with you for a long time. If you've never read it, you ought to check it out! Happy Reading!
