A review by ericas_bookshelf
Parable of the Sower by Octavia E. Butler

challenging dark emotional informative reflective tense slow-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes

5.0

My copy of this began with a forward by N. K. Jemisin and in it she discusses how each time she rereads this she finds even more brilliance to uncover and dissect. I feel the exact same way. This book is one that will always and forever be relevant and worthy of study. Highly, highly recommend.
