Buch. Zustand: Neu. Bowman, Manzel (illustrator). Neuware -The wise words of science fiction icon Octavia E. Butler live on in this beautiful and giftable little volume.There's no single answer that will solve all our future problems. There's no magic bullet. Instead there are thousands of answers-at least. You can be one of them if you choose to be.' Originally published in Essence magazine in the year 2000, Octavia E. Butler's essay 'A Few Rules for Predicting the Future' offers an honest look into the inspiration behind her science fiction novels and the importance of studying history and taking responsibility for our actions if we are to move forward. Organized into four main rules, this short essay reminds readers to learn from the past, respect the law of consequences, be aware of their perspectives, and count on the surprises. Citing the warning signs of fascism, the illusive effects of fear and wishful thinking, and the unpredictable nature of what is yet to come, Butler shares realistic but hopeful suggestions to shape our future into something good. An inspiring and motivational gift for students and recent graduates, fans of Butler's work, and anyone seeking a brighter day tomorrow, this exquisite gift book includes stunning Afrofuturist artwork by Manzel Bowman alongside the full text of the original essay.LITERARY ICON: Octavia E.

Butler's essay is also an important, evergreen reminder for writers, creatives, dreamers, and activists who want to envision and work toward a brighter future.Perfect for:- Fans of Octavia Butler and her novels, including Kindred and Parable of the Sower - People interested in nonfiction and essays by Black women writers - Afrofuturism lovers and social justice-minded sci-fi readers - Literary bibliophiles looking for a stunning new addition to their bookshelf - Gift-giving to graduating high school and college students - Activists and community leaders - Inspirational essay readers - Fans of Manzel Bowman and Afrofuturist artAbrams & Chronicle C/O Media Participations, 57 Rue Gaston Tessier, 75019 Paris 56 pp. Englisch.
