523: Chs 11-12 — The Tenant of Wildfell Hall

BOOK TALK @ 4:44Portrait of a Lady on Fire Parable of the Sower Kindred - both by Octavia Butler--WITH IMPORTANT NOTE FROM LISTENER MAUREEN: "In the current climate, I think it's worth noting that Octavia Butler is probably NOT one of the few women of color writing science fiction, but rather one of the few women of color BEING PUBLISHED in science fiction. Systemic racism shows up everywhere!The most recent This American Life podcast covered Afrofuturism (and was a rebroadcast), and so I would imagine that lots of POC are writing science fiction, but the publishing world may not be publishing them. And, of course, it's hard for anyone to get published." Book and pattern recommendations below.
