A lice Walker won the 1983 Pulitzer Prize for "The Color Purple," a novel which gained even further recognition as well as fierce criticism when Steven Spielberg turned it into a movie. In her latest book, "The Same River Twice: Honoring the Difficult" Walker grapples with some of the issues raised in the making of the film. The following are excerpts of a conversation held between Walker and her former professor Howard Zinn (of Spelman College in Georgia) as part of San Francisco's City Arts and Lectures series. Given the impact of your novel "The Color Purple," it was a real risk to do the film, and so hard to make people happy with it. Did you have a hard time being satisfied with it? Of course I did, but I had to accept that it was different. There are so many ways of thinking about why you decide to collectively do something rather than stay in your solitude. For me, I was always thinking about growing up in Edenton, N.C. It was totally segregated. In the theaters, white people would be down below, and we would be up in the gallery, where the broken seats were. I had never seen a film that had black people in real character roles, you know, where they were actually real people. They were only servants and maids and stereotypes. I never thought that one of my books would become a film never. When Steven Spielberg appeared, there was a part of me that saw it as a magical thing. It was a great risk, of course, because I don't know that Steven has been South yet. But there was something about this person appearing, open-hearted, very intense and very loving toward this book.

Member login: Username Password Cancel Membership Tell a Friend! Enter e-mail address: Search GradeSaver dictionary thesaurus Hosted by pair Networks About Alice Walker Alice Walker was born on February 9, 1944 in Eatonton, Georgia. Her mother, Minnie Tallulah Grant Walker, and her father, Willie Lee Walker, were poor sharecroppers. As the eighth and youngest child in the family, she grew up in the midst of violent racism, which combined with her family's poverty left a permanent impression on her writing. In the summer of 1952 Alice Walker was blinded in her right eye by a BB gun pellet while playing "cowboys and Indians" with her brothers. She was left with permanent damage in her eye and remained facially disfigured. At age 14, her brother Bill had the "cataract" removed for her by a doctor in Boston, but her vision never returned in that eye. After graduating high school in 1961 as the school's valedictorian and prom queen, Alice entered Spelman College in Atlanta, Georgia on a scholarship. While at Spelman she participated in civil rights demonstrations and was subsequently invited to Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s home in 1962 at the end of her freshman year. The invitation was in recognition of her invitation to attend the Youth World Peace Festival in Helsinki, Finland. She attended the conference and then traveled throughout Europe for the summer. In August of 1963 Alice went to Washington D.C. to participate in the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom. While there she was able to hear Dr. King's "I Have A Dream" address.

Alice Walker, The Color Purple Alice Walker's The Color Purple , published in 1982, tells the story of Celie, a Black woman in the South. Celie writes letters to God in which she tells about her lifeher roles as daughter, wife, sister, and mother. In the course of her story, Celie meets a series of other Black women who shape her life: Nettie, Celie's sister, who becomes a missionary teacher in Africa; Shug Avery, the Blues singer her husband Mr. is in love with, and who becomes Celie's salvation; Sofia, the strong-willed daughter-in-law whose strength and courage inspire Celie; and Squeak, who goes through awakenings of her own. Throughout the story, though, Celie is the center of this community of women, the one who knows how to survive. Click here for a brief biography of Alice Walker. Questions to Think About: 1) Alice Walker's The Color Purple is an example of a "woman's novel." This means not just that it was written by a woman, but that it carries on an identified tradition of women's writing, in terms of narrative strategies, themes addressed, and voice. This is not to say that all women write about the same things; but there is a tradition known as women's literature, which has developed with a consciousness of women's traditions of writing as distinct from mens' ways of writing. With that in mind, consider the following questions: a) What other novels by women have you read as literature? Who are the women authors you have seen included in your reading lists in literature courses in high school or college courses?

Contact Us Sylvia Plath 1932 - 1963 O sister, mother, wife, Sweet Lethe is my life I am never, never, never, coming home! I find my own Small person A standing self Against the world An equality of wills I finally understand Alice Walker 1944 - The difficulties of living in a society for an individual who is in some way different from the norm or somewhat nonconformist is a subject which is thoroughly explored not only in modern literature but in literature throughout the ages. In this essay I shall look at the problems which two women writers believe are inflicted on them because of their status as women: Sylvia Plath and Alice Walker. Both authors believe that stringent laws have been laid down by their predecessors, by the men and even by the women in their society. Much of the work of both women deals with their difficulty in coming to terms with these rules, the effect the rules have on them and sometimes (although more so in the work of Alice Walker) their attempts to overcome them.
