Butler⁣ Third image reposted from @7storiespress Our gorgeous new deluxe edition of BLOODCHILD—the only collection of short stories written by Octavia E. Butler! A beautiful hardcover, with cover art by @paullewinart, and featuring (of course) Bloodchild, Butler’s peerless Novelette, which won the Hugo, Nebula, and Locus awards.    ⁣ ⁣ #octaviabutler #authorspotlight #sciencefiction #afrofuturism #blacklit #representationmatters #ownvoice  #wellreadblackgirl #goodblackreads #blackbookstagram #parableofthesower #parableofthetalents #booksonbooks #bookfeature #bookspotlight #blackwomanauthor #blackgirlsread #neverwithoutabook📖 #diverseclassics  #OctaviaEButler #bloodchild #bloodchildandotherstories #sistahscifi (at Sistah Scifi) https://www.instagram.com/p/CnGFckspeY5/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
