A perfect introduction for new readers and a must-have for avid fans, this New York Times Notable Book includes "Bloodchild," winner of both the Hugo and the Nebula awards and "Speech Sounds," winner of the Hugo Award. Appearing in print for the first time, "Amnesty" is a story of a woman named Noah who works to negotiate the tense and co-dependent relationship between humans and a species of invaders. Also new to this collection is "The Book of Martha" which asks: What would you do if God granted you the ability—and responsibility—to save humanity from itself?
Like all of Octavia Butler’s best writing, these works of the imagination are parables of the contemporary world. She proves constant in her vigil, an unblinking pessimist hoping to be proven wrong, and one of contemporary literature’s strongest voices.

評分實在是很奇怪的一個集子……作者自述什麼讓自己不舒服就會寫什麼,果然說到做到
評分#Speech Sounds# On what basis can one judge human actions as good, bad, or otherwise? What happens when humans lose certain aspects of themselves? ‘Anger, frustration, hopelessness, insane jealousy...how many more of him were there—people willing to destroy what they could not have?’
評分作者想象力真的很豐富,也有很多的討論思索的空間,可真心不是我的菜。。。
