THE AFROFUTURISM BOOK CLUB WITH TYREE BOYD-PATES | Parable of the Sower

AfroFuturism is a vast, forward-looking movement with solid roots in the past. Though it spans art, music, theory – everything – we read new fiction.

WE’VE GONE DIGITAL.

Book clubs are still a thing around here, and just in time for the pandemic lockdown. You’re stuck at home, but you’re not alone – cuz book club is coming up and we’re gonna Zoom the heck out of some Gothic or Español or AfroFuturism or whatever.

Get your ticket here, email us your address, we’ll mail you your book, and then we’ll Zoom together and talk about it. All our fantastic moderators are still on board. (Specific instructions follow after you’ve got your ticket.)

We’re back to the great Octavia Butler, with Parable of the Sower. This frighteningly relevant dystopian tale follows the empathic Lauren, as she forms a faith community and leads them away from a crumbling, oppressive society.

HOW IT WORKS:

All book clubs require a ticket, and include the book, and a dedicated moderator – to keep the discussion on track! All clubs meet at The Last Bookstore.

You can get your ticket one of two ways: either thru this
link (*we’ll ship the book to you!) – OR buy your ticket in the store, just look for our book club display (near the book tunnel).

*If you choose the on-line option (the one with shipping), please send a mailing addy to larkin.lastbookstore@gmail.com — Do not try to pick up the book in person.
