Abstract
The aim of the text is to show that two fictional novels such as The Color Purple written by Alice Walker and Push written by Sapphire present dialogical relations between their narratives and they can project critical reflections based on representations they bring Methodologically the analysis is organized from Alice Walker 2003 and Sapphire s 1997 literary manifestations and from the scope of theoretical studies linked to sociocultural and literary criticism The results confirm that the studied novels express thematic approaches in addition to making explicit human invisibilities like exclusions and oppressions Meaningful literacy and sharing contexts among women were necessary for the protagonists Celie and Precious to become fully self-conscious and ultimately self-emancipate
