    I knew of her because of her famous book Color purple, but I am learning more about her because I have an essay to write on her she is a wonderful woman.

    I love the body of work of Alice Walker and they should seriously consider giving her the Nobel Prize for Litterature.

    Having spent today reading "Possessing the Secret of Joy" and feeling my throat tighten and tears gather under my lids umpteen dozen times, I was unprepared for this suddden spate of humor. I'm drying tears of empathy for Tashi and a few generated by laughter at myself, who just recently learned to drive at 55 and acquired my first cell phone last year.

    May I echo and send to you, your quote in a letter to Aung San Suu Kyi ...
    "You know how, when reading someone, you begin to cherish him or her? That has been happening, as I read you.”

    lovely humour and thought combined if you take 'sofa' metaphorically (welcome, comfort, togetherness, intimacy ,etc.)
    🤔 bit 'privileged' and consumerist though... so what if you don't have a sofa
