Powerful, prophetic, and poignant. Butler took issues she saw such as climate change, religion, racism and many more that we as humans were struggling with in the 1990’s and extrapolated them to what they could look like in 30 years. And quite honestly she was not far off on how society is described in Parable. This book hits hard and needs to be read by everyone.
