A powerful and inspiring biography of Octavia Estelle Butler, the groundbreaking science fiction and fantasy author, by the New York Times bestselling author Ibi Zoboi. Born in 1947, Octavia Estelle Butler grew up in Pasadena, California, surrounded by racial tension and the Space Race. She was a shy, introverted child who found solace in reading and writing. As a young Black woman, she faced challenges in the predominantly white, male-dominated world of science fiction, but she persevered and went on to become one of the most celebrated and influential authors of her generation. Through interviews with Butler's family, friends, and colleagues, as well as with the author herself, Ibi Zoboi creates a rich and nuanced portrait of a woman who redefined the boundaries of science fiction and fantasy. From her early struggles to her rise to success, Zoboi explores Butler's life and work, including her novels 'Kindred' and 'Parable of the Sower,' and her powerful themes of race, power, and identity. 'Star Child' is a powerful tribute to a remarkable writer and thinker, and a testament to the power of perseverance and creativity in the face of adversity.
