The Color Purple by Alice Walker

cw: racism, domestic violence, sexual assault, rape, pedophilia, incest, child abuse, misogyny. This book is pretty heavy, so please proceed with caution. Welcome back, Literary Slummers, to another episode of Shelf Aware. This week, we're reading the second book in Em's unit on the Great American Novel, The Color Purple. This book was actually very good and dealt with a lot of difficult topics, so jokes are not super heavy this episode. Can't be too mad about reading an excellent book though, right?
