January Sci-Fi Reading Group Meetup
2024-01-22 19:00 - 20:30 | Meeting Room D – Quiet Reading Room, 224 Main Street, Brattleboro, VT, 05301, United States
The Sci-Fi Reading Group will meet Monday, January 22nd, in the Quiet Reading Room from 7-8:30 pm to discuss our first novel-length book, Wild Seed by Octavia E. Butler.
“Doro knows no higher authority than himself. An ancient spirit with boundless powers, he possesses humans, killing without remorse as he jumps from body to body to sustain his own life. With a lonely eternity ahead of him, Doro breeds supernaturally gifted humand into empires that obey his every desire. He fears no one — until he meets Anyanwu. Anyanwu is an entity like Doro and yet different. She can heal with a bite and transform her own body, mending injuries and reversing aging. She uses her powers to cure her neighbors and birth entire tribes, surrounding herself with kindred who both fear and respect her. No one poses a true threat to Anyanwu — until she meets Doro. The moment Doro meets Anyanwu, he covets her, and from the villages of seventeenth century Nigeria to nineteenth century United States, their courtship becomes a power struggle that echoes through generatons, irrevocably changing what it means to be human. “
The Sci-Fi Reading Group meets the third Monday of every month and is open to curious minds of all ages, whether or not they’ve read this month’s selection.
