A poor Black woman in the rural South writes letters to God about the men who beat, rape and separate her from everyone she loves, and slowly, through another woman's love and her own hard work, finds her voice and her family again.

I think it pisses God off if you walk by the color purple in a field somewhere and don't notice it.
