I read this for book club and because my daughter has to read it for school. Powerful and thought-provoking. I've been hearing about Octavia Butler a lot lately, so I was surprised to realize that she wrote 30 years ago and died years ago. I'm interested to learn more about how her books were received and what prompted the renaissance.
I listened to this, and it went pretty fast.
Some of the dialogue seemed forced, and there were a couple of very small historical errors, but should be good for discussion!
