Synopsis
Described by the author as "a romance of the last 500,000 years," Walker's novel offers a poetic narrative of the black experience in America., First published in 1990, The Temple of My Familiar, Alice Walker's follow-up novel to her iconic The Color Purple, spent more than four months on the New York Times Bestseller list and was hailed by critics as a "major achievement" ( Chicago Tribune ). Described by the author as "a romance of the last 500,000 years," The Temple of My Familiar follows a cast of interrelated characters, most of African descent, and each representing a different ethnic strain--ranging from diverse African tribes to the mixed bloods of Latin America--that contribute to the black experience in America., In this "brilliant" ( Essence ) sequel to The Color Purple , Alice Walker weaves an intricate, rich tapestry of interrelated lives. This edition includes a new Letter to the Reader by Alice Walker. Celie and Shug from The Color Purple subtly shadow the lives of the dozens of astonishing characters in The Temple of My Familiar , all of whom are dealing in some way with the legacy of the African experience in America. From recent African immigrants to a woman who grew up in the mixed-race rainforest communities of South America to Celie's own granddaughter living in modern-day San Francisco, they must come to terms with the brutal stories of their ancestors in order to confront their own troubled lives. Described by the author as "a romance of the last 500,000 years," The Temple of My Familiar creates a new mythology from old fables and history, and along with it a profoundly spiritual explanation for centuries of shared African American experience. "The richness of [this] novel is amazing, overwhelming. A hundred themes and subjects spin through it, dozens of characters, a whirl of time and places. None is touched superficially: all the people are passionate actors and sufferers, and everything they talk about is urgent, a matter truly of life and death. They're like Dostoyevsky's characters, relentlessly raising the great moral questions and pushing one another towards self-knowledge, honesty, engagement." --Ursula K.
