The Color Purple Letter Thirty-Six Summary

Sofia comes to Harpo’s—with a man! Sofia introduces her new man – who’s as big as a prizefighter – as Buster.
Sofia asks Mr.__ where his other children are at. Apparently, both of his daughters got pregnant and left. His other son is in an out of jail.
Celie tells Sofia that she looks great. Sofia lets Celie know that she’s had another child, too – and that child isn’t Harpo’s.
Shug comes over to say hi to Sofia. Shug is looking pretty darn hot, which all of the men in the audience and Celie take notice of.
Harpo comes over to ask Sofia what she’s there for and she tells him that he has a nice jukejoint.
Even though Harpo stopped eating massive amounts, he’s fat now from all of the beer he’s been drinking.
Harpo’s girlfriend, Squeak, gets jealous when Sofia and Harpo dance together. Squeak tells Sofia to leave Harpo alone. Sofia has no problem with that and starts to leave, but Harpo holds her back.
Squeak calls Sofia a b---h and slaps her. Big mistake. Sofia slugs her in the face—knocks two of Squeak’s teeth out.
After a short pause, Harpo decides to comfort Squeak and Sofia leaves with Buster.
