Reviews
"In the ongoing contest over which dystopianclassic is most applicable to our time, Octavia Butler's 'Parable' books may beunmatched."-- New Yorker, "The story of three generations of Olamina women . . . Most touching inthe novel are the friction betweengenerations, the kinds of faith each generation indulges in, and the newfamilies that form when traditional ones are splintered."-- Los Angeles Times, "A brilliant, endlessly rich dystopian novel that pairs well with 1984 or The Handmaid's Tale, and it's also a fascinating exploration of how crises can fuel new religious and ideological movements."-- John Green, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Turtles All the Way Down (praise for Parable of the Sower), "Continues and deepens the story [Butler] began five years ago in Parable of the Sower. . . Butler's narrative skills are impressive."-- New York Times Book Review, "Impassioned . . . stands out as a testament to the author's enormoustalent."-- Publishers Weekly (starred review), "A brilliant, endlessly rich dystopian novel that pairs well with 1984 or The Handmaid's Tale, and it's also a fascinating exploration of how crises can fuel new religious and ideological movements."-- John Green, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Turtles All the Way Down, "If we're talking must-read authors like Maya Angelou, James Baldwin, and Toni Morrison, the one-and-only Octavia Butler needs be a part of the conversation. The groundbreaking sci-fi and speculative fiction author was a master of spinning imaginative tales that introduced you to both the possibilities -- and dangers -- of the human race, all while offering lessons on tribalism, race, gender, and sexuality."-- O, The Oprah Magazine, "One of the finest voices in fiction-period . . . A master storyteller,Butler casts an unflinching eye on racism, sexism, poverty, and ignorance andlets the reader see the terror and beauty of human nature."-- Washington Post Book World, "The Earthseed books are instructional in a way that other apocalypse fictions are not . . . they offer something beyond practical preparations: a blueprint for adjusting to uncertainty."-- Slate, "[Butler] wrote powerfully, imaginatively, and creatively. The worldsshe built were beautiful, harsh, and grim. Her protagonists were stoic andinspiring. Despite tackling multiple issues-politics, environment, segregation,religion, social injustices-her prose was concise. Her stories were powerfuland believable."-- SFF World

Synopsis
From a celebrated author, the thrilling sequel to The Parable of the Sower --a cautionary novel ahead of its time, perfect for fans of The Broken Earth trilogy. In 2032, Lauren Olamina has survived the destruction and ruin of everything she knew. Her peaceful community based on her newly founded faith, Earthseed, provides refuge for outcasts facing persecution after the election of an ultra-conservative president. Under his rule, Lauren's colony--a minority religious faction led by a young Black woman--becomes a target for the president's reign of terror and oppression. Years later, Asha Vere reads the journals of a mother she never knew. As she searches for answers, she struggles to reconcile with the legacy of a mother caught between her duty to her chosen family and her calling to lead humankind into a better future. "In the ongoing contest over which dystopian classic is most applicable to our time, Octavia Butler's 'Parable' books may be unmatched."-- The New Yorker, Originally published in 1998, this shockingly prescient novel's timely message of hope and resistance in the face of fanaticism is more relevant than ever. In 2032, Lauren Olamina has survived the destruction of her home and family, and realized her vision of a peaceful community in northern California based on her newly founded faith, Earthseed. The fledgling community provides refuge for outcasts facing persecution after the election of an ultra-conservative president who vows to "make America great again." In an increasingly divided and dangerous nation, Lauren's subversive colony--a minority religious faction led by a young black woman--becomes a target for President Jarret's reign of terror and oppression. Years later, Asha Vere reads the journals of a mother she never knew, Lauren Olamina. As she searches for answers about her own past, she also struggles to reconcile with the legacy of a mother caught between her duty to her chosen family and her calling to lead humankind into a better future.

- n***n (59)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufQuite possibly the highest quality book shipment I have ever received. Amazon could learn a lot from Dunkin! My book was still wrapped in cellophane. So, a new book just as described and as pictured. Plus it was wrapped in foam and shipped in a fresh, clean box the very next day after I purchased it. Not only did the Dunkin Bookstore offer the book for a great value, but I would consider their customer service excellent as well. Highly recommended seller!
- 1***r (18)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufItem arrived well packed and as described at the best price I could find. Shipping got a little screwy; tracking info was provided, cancelled and then provided again a few days later. Package arrived a day past original estimate. Over all a positive experience, would do business with these folks again.The Lord of the Rings 60th Anniversary Boxed Set By J.R.R. Tolkien NEW Hardcover (Nr. 333648367949)
- e***d (2916)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufPerfect purchase! This is a wonderful Seller! I received my books ahead of schedule. They were packed in a very sturdy box that fit the books like a glove. When I give a positive, 5 star rating, I look for three things : 1. Did the item arrive on time? 2. Was it packed carefully, to arrive as undamaged as possible? 3. Was the item exactly as described? The books were still wrapped in their shrink wrap and were perfect. You won’t have to worry about this Seller’s reputation. It is spot on!!!
