Historia
Environmental devastation and economic chaos have turned America into a land of horrifying depravity. Assault, theft, sexual abuse, slavery, and murder are commonplace. And a zealous, bigoted tyrant has won his way into the White House. Directly opposed is Lauren Olamina, founder of Earthseed - a new faith that teaches "God Is Change". Persecuted for "heathen" beliefs as much as for having a Black female leader, Earthseed's followers face a life-and-death struggle to preserve their vision.

Powerful, dark sequel that stands on its own

Prophetic insight
Revisado: 02-09-25
I just devoured the Parable of the Sower and the Parable of the Talents in a few weeks after having never read any of Octavia Butler’s work. I can’t believe how eerily similar President Jarrod is to president trump. His “Make America Great Again” slogan and all the reasons people voted for him and overlooked the warning signs… it’s all happening now in 2025… These two books are incredibly well written and thought provoking. Absolute masterpieces that I can’t stop thinking about.

Historia
What makes a romance novel a romance? Writing a well-structured romance isn't the same as writing any other genre - something the popular novel and screenwriting guides don't address. The romance arc is made up of its own story beats. Told in conversational (and often irreverent) prose, Romancing the Beat is like sitting down to coffee with romance editor and author Gwen Hayes while she explains story structure - the way she does with her clients, some of whom are regular inhabitants of the best-seller lists.
