Graphic Novel Discussion: Parable of the Sower
Join the Rogers Park Branch as we read and discuss Damian Duffy's graphic adaptation of Octavia E. Butler's Parable of the Sower .
It is the year 2024. The country is marred by unattended environmental and economic crises that lead to social chaos. Lauren Olamina, a preacher's daughter living in Los Angeles, is protected from danger by the walls of her gated community. However, in a night of fire and death, what begins as a fight for survival soon leads to something much more: a startling vision of human destiny... and the birth of a new faith.
Books will available at the Rogers Park Reference Desk by July 1.
