Alice Walker's most famous work, THE COLOR PURPLE (1982), takes the form, unusual in modern-day Western literature, of an epistolary novel. The story is told in letters, many of them addressed to God by the novel's protagonist, Celie, a young black girl in rural Georgia. zav | Student, Undergraduate | eNotes Newbie.
What happens after a supernova? A: Depending on the size of the star before it explodes as a supernova, the core of the star either shrinks back into a tiny neutron star or becomes a black hole. If the star is only a few times bigger than the sun, the core becomes a tiny neutron star.
In fact, supernovae come in different flavours, starting from different kinds of stars, ending up with different kinds of explosions, and producing different kinds of remnants. There are two main types of supernovae, the Type I and the Type II. I know this sounds a little counter intuitive, but let's start with the Type II first. These are the supernovae produced when massive stars die. We've done a whole show about that process, so if you want to watch it now, you can click here.
