"How local libraries shaped a sci-fi legend

In one of the most turbulent years in recent memory, readers are turning
to the prophetic books of science fiction writer Octavia E. Butler.

Her 1993 ‘Parable of the Sower’ envisioned a Los Angeles roiled by
climate change and inequality in the 2020s. The novel landed on both the
Los Angeles Times and New York Times bestseller lists this fall."

Via Muse, who wrote "Charming article about Octavia Butler!"
