The color purple / Alice Walker.

Summary:

This is the story of two sisters--one a missionary in Africa and the other a child wife living the South--who sustain their loyalty to and trust in each other across time, distance, and silence. Beautifully imagined and deeply compassionate, this classic novel of American literature is rich with passion, pain, inspiration, and an indomitable love of life.
