Readers Are Turning, In Droves, To Octavia Butler’s Post-Apocalyptic Fiction

WORDS Posted: September 20, 2020 4:00 am

There’s nothing like it – and it feels eerily prescient, too. “The Earthseed books are instructional in a way that other apocalypse fictions are not. They are not prepper fiction, though reading them will teach you a thing or two about go bags and the importance of posting a night watch. According to people who love the books, myself included, they offer something beyond practical preparations: a blueprint for adjusting to uncertainty.” – Slate
