E v e r y d a y U s e f o r Y o u r G r a n d m a m aIn order to understand this passage better, we can watch a movie---”The Color of Purple”故事发生于1909年美国南部。
未受过教育的黑人女孩西莉被继父强奸后,又被迫嫁给了粗鲁,凶狠的黑人男子,西莉称其为“先生”。
在惊恐和胆怯中她开始了奴仆一般的痛苦生活。
幸而有亲姐妹南蒂与之相伴,泪水中才多了一些欢乐。
不久,这短暂的幸福也从西莉身边消失了。
因为“先生”强奸南蒂不成,恼羞成怒地将南蒂赶了出去,姐妹二人被残酷的分开。
年复一年,西莉在门口的邮筒中找寻南蒂的音讯,她始终期盼有一天能与南蒂再次重逢……(从中大家可以看到当时的整个社会的缩影,以及黑人生活的社会环境和社会地位,黑人女性的崛起和黑人女性的反抗精神也从有深刻得展现)Everyday Use for Your GrandmamaCharacters:Maggie: a shy,young woman made even more self-concious by scars she got in a house fire years ago.
