About This Novel
This book was first published in 1992. The plot of this book is closely related to Alice Walker's masterpiece "The Color Purple". Walker once said: "Tashe briefly appeared in "The Color Purple". When writing this book, she has been lingering in my mind and deeply imprinted in my heart. She made me finally decide that she needed an independent story and that she was worthy of me. Write a book of her own. "Tashe is the daughter-in-law of Celie, the protagonist in The Color Purple. The story of her and Celie's son Adam growing up as childhood sweethearts in the Olinka tribe in Africa appeared in Nettie's letter in The Color Purple. This book tells the story of Tahi and Adam's life after they returned to the United States from Africa. Tahi accepted the traditional custom of killing women's bodies in Africa - "circumcision". In the process of seeking healing, Tahi gradually realized that the female body has always been stigmatized in human history, and finally decided to return to Africa to resist her fate of being misunderstood and despised as a black woman. Tahi once read in a book written by a white person: "Black people follow their nature and they have the secret of happiness." She had never experienced true happiness until the end of her life and finally understood: "Resistance is the secret of happiness."
