Description

Dawn is a thought-provoking novel by Octavia E. Butler, exploring the possibilities of humanity and the consequences of change. When Lilith lyapo wakes in a small white room with no doors or windows, she remembers a devastating war and a life she thought was lost forever.

She finds herself living among the Oankali, a strange race who intervened in the fate of humanity hundreds of years before. The Oankali spared those they could from the ruined Earth, and suspended them in a long, deep sleep. Now, they want Lilith to lead her people back home, but salvation comes at a price: to restore humanity, it must be changed forever.

This novel by Octavia E. Butler is a hopeful and thought-provoking exploration of what it means to be human, and the difficult choices that come with saving humanity. For readers who enjoy Margaret Atwood, Toni Morrison and Ursula K. Le Guin, Dawn is a compelling and evocative read.
