ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

Octavia E. Butler's Parable of the Sower tells the story of Lauren Olamina, a young woman living in a dystopian future where society has collapsed due to climate change, economic inequality, and violence. Lauren develops a new belief system called Earthseed, which centers on the idea that "God is Change" and that humanity's destiny is to take root among the stars. As her community is destroyed, she embarks on a dangerous journey north, gathering followers along the way. The novel explores themes of change, adaptation, and the human capacity for both destruction and creation. The narrative highlights the importance of adaptability, perseverance, and community in the face of a collapsing society. It also considers the nature of power and how people are able to form communities that can endure in the face of hardship and violence.
