Rezensionen

One of the most significant literary artists of the twentieth century. One cannot exaggerate the impact she has had Junot Diaz

Octavia E. Butler is one of the finest voices in fiction period A master storyteller, Butler casts an unflinching eye on racism, sexism, poverty, and ignorance and lets the reader see the terror and beauty of human nature. Washington Post Book World

Readers familiar with Parable of the Sower and Bloodchild will recall that [Butler] never asks easy questions or settles for easy answers. Gerald Jonas, New York Times
