Parable of the Sower by Octavia Butler

02/23/23 • 45 min

We poured a strong drink we're calling a Pyro Potable for this amazing but bleak book. Parable isn't a fun, light-hearted beachy read, but the kind of book that you feel like a better human being because you read it. We're peeling this onion and perhaps have more questions than answers in this episode—so listen in, then find us on social and help us out! What did you all think of this book? And if you have answers to our questions, we want to hear them!
