Alice Walker begins writing The Color Purple, following the pain of her father’s loss in 1973 and her divorce in 1976. In it, she planned to tell the story of two women who felt married to the same man. It took her less than a year to complete The Color Purple (1982), written in the epistolary form, in “Black Folks English”, a language that would not intimidate ordinary black people, like her mother.
