Possessing The Secret Of Joy

When Alice Walker finished writing The Color Purple she realised that she needed to tell the story of Tashi, a minor character, who had "left Africa but had taken her wound with her to America". This is Tashi's story, told in her words and the voices of the people who loved her.

Cand Alice Walker a terminat de scris The Color Purple, si-a dat seama ca trebuie sa spuna povestea lui Tashi, un personaj minor, care ,,a parasit Africa, dar si-a luat rana cu ea in America". Aceasta este povestea lui Tashi, spusa in cuvintele ei si vocile oamenilor care au iubit-o.
