Alice Walker - The Color Purple by Rachel Lister
This Guide explores the range of key critical responses to Walker's novel, from contemporary reviews to 21st century readings. It deals with various critical issues such as Walker's use of generic conventions, linguistic and narrative strategies, race, class, gender identity and sexual politics. Spielberg's film adaptation is also covered.
'In this thought-provoking volume, Lister provides a crucial framework to enhance our understanding of Walker's controversial, award-winning novel, and to generate further debate and interest in Walker scholarship' - Loretta G. Woodard, Marygrove College, USA
