The follow-up to Kindred, the #1 bestseller, comes Octavia E. Butler's groundbreaking dystopian novel
In this graphic novel adaptation of Octavia E. Butler's Parable of the Sower, by Damian Duffy and John Jennings, the award-winning team behind the #1 bestseller Kindred: A Graphic Novel Adaptation,
the author portrays a searing vision of America's future. In the year
2024, the country is marred by unattended environmental and economic
crises that lead to social chaos. Lauren Olamina, a preacher's daughter
living in Los Angeles, is protected from danger by the walls of her
gated community. However, in a night of fire and death, what begins as a
fight for survival soon leads to something much more: a startling
vision of human destiny . . . and the birth of a new faith.
Damian Duffy adapts Octavia Butler's resurgently popular science fiction engagement with themes of identity, economic crisis and environmental obligation. Duffy's regular collaborator John Jennings provides the artwork.
