DPL Fall Book Club: Parable of the Sower by Octavia E. Butler

The Duncan Public Library in partnership with the Friends of the Library will host IT WAS THE 90s: a series of book events centered around four amazing books presented by four local scholars as they take you through the 90s at your favorite local library! These four novels are award winning, and we feel like they are representative of important literary events and trends in the 1990s. October's book is Parable of the Sower by Octavia E. Butler.

When global climate change and economic crises lead to social chaos in the early 2020s, California becomes full of dangers. In a society where any vulnerability is a risk, Lauren Olamina suffers from hyperempathy, a debilitating sensitivity to others' emotions. What begins as a fight for survival soon leads to something much more: the birth of a new faith . . . and a startling vision of human destiny.
