In Search of The Color Purple: A Conversation with Dr. Jacqueline S. Mattis, Dean of Rutgers University, Newark

In Search of The Color Purple: The Story of An American Masterpiece combines cultural criticism, history, and memoir to explore Alice Walker’s epistolary novel. Provocative and personal, In Search of The Color Purple is a bold and timely work from an important public intellectual that captures this novel’s seminal role in reimagining trauma, healing, and racial and gender justice for generations to come.
