Note	This is the story of a black family's growth and flowering as told through the life of Celie. Set in the rural South about 1909, it tells of the loving relationship between Celie and her sister Nettie. At the center of everything is Celie, who as a young girl gives birth to two children who are both taken away from her. She and her sister are also separated. Celie then marries into a life of virtual servitude to a brutal man causing her life to be filled with oppression and grinding disappointments. Her joys are few until, after 40 years, she is reunited with her family.
