"Dana, a modern black woman, is celebrating her twenty-sixth birthday with her new husband when she is snatched abruptly from her home in California and transported to the antebellum South. Rufus, the white son of a plantation owner, is drowning, and Dana has been summoned to save him. Dana is drawn back repeatedly through time to the slave quarters, and each time the stays grow longer, more arduous, and more dangerous until it is uncertain whether or not Dana's life will end, long before it has a chance to begin." [publisher copy] "Butler's books are exceptional. She is a realist, writing the most detailed social criticism and creating some of the most fascinating female characters in the genre--real women caught in impossible situations."--Dorothy Allison. "Octavia Butler is a writer who will be with us for a long, long time, and KINDRED is that rare magical artifact--the novel one returns to, again and again."--Harlan Ellison. "Reading Octavia Butler taught me to dream big, and I think it's absolutely necessary that everybody have that freedom and that willingness to dream."--N. K. Jemisin. "In KINDRED, Octavia Butler creates a road for the impossible and a balm for the unbearable. It is everything the literature of science fiction can be."--Walter Mosley. "One cannot finish KINDRED without feeling changed. It is a shattering work of art with much to say about love, hate, slavery, and racial dilemmas, then and now."--Sam Frank, Los Angeles Herald-Examiner. Pristine paperback w/brilliant corners & crisp edges, a square & tight binding w/no creases in spine & no hulu sticker on cover. Quite presentable.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Experience the novel that redefined American literature by the New York Times bestselling author of Parable of the Sower, MacArthur "Genius,' and Nebula and Hugo award winnerSelected by The Atlantic as one of the 'most consequential novels of the past 100 years' 'I lost an arm on my last trip home. My left arm.'Dana's 26th birthday celebration ends when she's ripped from 1976 California and thrust onto a Maryland slave plantation in 1815. Her mission: keep alive the white boy who will grow up to assault her ancestorbecause without him, she'll never be born.Every trip back grows more dangerous. Dana feels the lash, wears the chains, endures the daily terror that defined millions of lives. She can't just read about slavery's horrorsshe lives them, bleeds from them, nearly breaks under them.Butler doesn't let you observe from a safe distance. You're trapped in Dana's skin as she navigates impossible choices: submit to survive, or resist and risk everything. You'll feel her desperation as she fights to preserve her humanity while the plantation's brutality threatens to consume her.This isn't historical fictionit's time travel that cuts straight to the bone of American racism. Butler pioneered the neo-slavery narrative that inspired Colson Whitehead's Underground Railroad and Ta-Nehisi Coates's Water Dancer.

Dana's story will lodge itself in your chest and refuse to leave. You'll understand, in ways textbooks never taught you, how the past lives in our presentand why that matters more than ever. "Where stories about American slavery are often gratuitous, reducing its horror to explicit violence and brutality, Kindred is controlled and precise" (New York Times)."Reading Octavia Butler taught me to dream big, and I think it's absolutely necessary that everybody have that freedom and that willingness to dream."
