Reading Alice Walker
I have made a step forward and decided to try my reading self at reading Southern (American) literature. I started with Alice Walker and here are a few quotes I liked from her essay.
"Blindness about other human beings, especially for a writer, is equivalent to death."
"A country person finds the city confining like a too tight dress."
"In the nicest possible language, which still made me as mad as I've ever been, he suggested that a ˝farmer's daugter˝ might not be the stuff of which poets are made."
I like her writing and will add Color Purple to my to-do reading list.
