Description

Human Contradictions in Octavia Butler’s Work continues the critical discussions of Butler’s work by offering a variety of theoretical perspectives and approaches to Butler’s text. This collection contains original essays that engage Butler’s series (Seed to Harvest, Xenogenesis, Parables), her stand-alone novels (Kindred and Fledgling), and her short stories. The essays explore new facets of Butler’s work and its relevance to philosophy, sociology, anthropology, psychology, cultural studies, ethnic studies, women’s studies, religious studies, American studies, and U.S. history. The volume establishes new ways of reading this seminal figure in African American literature, science fiction, feminism, and popular culture. Review h Review “ Human Contradictions in Octavia E. Butler’s Work is a solid and stimulating addition to Butler scholarship. The collection covers a wide range of concerns that continue to speak to the times we live in. Through a variety of approaches, it engages with the fullness of Butler’s work and shows how it remains useful for understanding and providing solutions to local and global problems. The volume has an interdisciplinary appeal, and will be of interest to both established and new scholars of different disciplines.” ( Raffaella Baccolini, University of Bologna, Italy) Review h From the Back Cover Human Contradictions in Octavia Butler’s Work continues the critical discussions of Butler’s work by offering a variety of theoretical perspectives and approaches to Butler’s text.
