Hardback. Condizione: New. Throughout her work, Octavia E. Butler explored, critiqued, and created religious ideology. Her prescient thoughts on the synergy between politics and religion in America are evident in her 1993 dystopian novel, Parable of the Sower, and its 1998 sequel, Parable of the Talents.

God Is Change meditates on alternate religious possibilities that open different political and cultural futures to illustrate humanity's ability to endure change and thrive.…
