Description
Kindred, Octavia E. Butler's groundbreaking masterpiece, explores the complex and often painful paradoxes of metamorphosis with compelling precision.
In this thought-provoking novel, Dana finds herself repeatedly pulled back in time to 1815, where she meets Rufus on a Maryland plantation. As their lives become intertwined, Dana uncovers secrets about her own past that challenge everything she thought she knew about herself and her place in the world.
With its evocative prose and nuanced exploration of issues such as race, power, and identity, Kindred is a powerful and unsettling read that will leave you questioning what it means to be human.
