Parable of the Talents: Epilogue

Larkin/Asha meets her “charismatic, dangerous, heathen” mother, Lauren. Our understanding of the timeline deepens. Marc’s duplicity continues to cause discord and heartbreak. And Earthseed does, finally, take root among the stars.

Toshi and adrienne break down the epilogue of Octavia E. Butler’s Parable of the Talents. And offer some final questions (of this series!) for you and your people to consider.

We’ll be back later in August with a conversation with Alexis Pauline Gumbs. And later, we’ll be launching our exploration of the Wild Seed series. Stay tuned.
