Star Child: A Biographical Constellation of Octavia Estelle Butler by Ibi Zoboi is part poetry, part biography.

This. Is. AMAZING. A perfect way to honor Butler’s life and legacy.

Clearly a labor of love. The poems didn't always work for me -- poetry aimed at young people and novels in verse rarely do -- but I loved how she connected and contextualized them with the prose afterwards, and especially all the quotes and images of Butler's writing.

This was beautiful and I loved the format. Do I now want to be both a Butler AND Zoboi completist? I do.
