Well actually, the name of Celie's hisband is mentioned; his name is Albert. But Shug and only Shug was allowed to address him by his first name. I guess because his name not being exposed showed his "high stature" and that very few people were worthy of calling him by his first name. And Shug was the only woman who ever had this kind of power over him because she was the only one who put him in his place and he always waited around for her.


Anyways, I just got my copy of my second book that I will begin to read which is called The Virgin Suicides by Jefferey Eugenidis. Eugenidis has also written another fantastic book called Middlesex and I HIGHLY recommend that book. The Virgin Suicides has also been made into a major motion picture which I've heard was extremely well-put together and I will be watching it after I finish to compare the book and movie version of this story.

Here's a brief synopsis:
This book is depicts the image of youth and the loss of innocencenof 5 interesting sisters; Therese, Mary, Bonnie, Lux, and Cecilia who all face the same demise of suicide.

In the last book, I read how woman deal with issues attacking them from the outside world, in this book I will be reading about the issues that attack them psychologically and how it contributes to my overall big question. So, stay tuned!
