Historia4 out of 5 stars 22
A parallel universe. South Texas. Narcotics are legal, and there’s a new contraband on the market: ancient Olmec artifacts, shrunken indigenous heads, and filtered animals - species of animals brought back from extinction to clothe, feed, and generally amuse the very wealthy. Esteban Bellacosa has lived in the border town of MacArthur long enough to know to keep quiet. But his simple life starts to get complicated when the swashbuckling investigative journalist Paco Herbert invites him to come to an illegal underground dinner serving filtered animals.

Celie is a poor black woman whose letters tell the story of 20 years of her life, beginning at age 14 - when she is being abused and raped by her father and attempting to protect her sister from the same fate - and continuing over the course of her marriage to "Mister", a brutal man who terrorizes her.

What made the experience of listening to The Color Purple the most enjoyable?
I loved hearing Alice walkers voice coming through in the characters. She knew the voice and timing of the character and brought out the syntax and authentic intelligence of the character.
What was one of the most memorable moments of The Color Purple?
The character learns of sexuality and that's a humorous and love of life filled moment. When we first learn of the letters. Well I won't give it away.
Have you listened to any of Alice Walker’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
Not sure. She's an actress though as well as being a fine writer.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Yeah. I was on a car trip.
Any additional comments?
A classic. But you get something important out of the audio format.
