Alice Walker’s The Colour Purple is an epistolary novel that spans the years and distance between two sisters that are trying to survive their respective worlds. Celie is stuck in an abusive relationship, married to a man that views her as his property to do with what he likes. Nettie escapes the doldrums of domestic life, becoming a part of a mission in Africa. The duality of their lives is intimately entangled in the social landscape they find themselves in as they struggle through with a perseverance that inspires and defines.
