As the story begins , it's Sunday morning
in rural Georgia, 1909. "Po chile"
Celie, 14 years old and pregnant for the
second time, is playing a clapping game
with her beloved sister Nettie (Huckleberry
Pie). When she comes to church with her
sister and their Pa, Celie goes into labor
before the service ends (Mysterious Ways).
Later, Pa takes Celie's baby from her
arms( Somebody Gonna Love You), saying
he is going to get rid of it, "same
as the last one," and that she better
not tell anybody except God what happened.
Celie asks God for a sign, something that
will let her know what is happening to
her. Buy
