Walkers Men are either clowns or brutes, Wintersons are either weaklings or beasts compare the ways that both novels present masculinity
In both ‘The Colour Purple’ and ‘Oranges are not the only fruit’ the main female characters ‘Celie’ and ‘Jeanette’ are repressed by the male patriarchal society in which they live. ... She continues to worry about men, and she worries about finding a husband, she talks to a woman on her street that says she married a pig, Jeanette worries about her own future. Jeanette feels she can find reassurance in the library
