{"product_id":"9781419749483","title":"Parable of the Talents : A Graphic Novel Adaptation by Damian Duffy","description":"This gripping graphic novel adaptation of Octavia E. Butler's groundbreaking dystopian novel stands beside the acclaimed previous graphic novel adaptations, Kindred, a #1 New York Times bestseller, and Parable of the Sower, winner of the Hugo Award Set against a background of a war-torn continent under the control of a Christian fundamentalist fascist state, Parable of the Talents is a modern masterpiece that resonates powerfully.    This graphic novel adaptation is brought to life thrillingly by Damian Duffy and John Jennings, the creative team behind the #1 New York Times bestselling adaptation of Kindred.    Parable of the Talents is told in the voice of Lauren Olamina's daughter, Asha Vere-from whom she has been separated for most of the girl's life-interspersed with sections in the form of Lauren's own journals.    Asha searches for answers about her past while struggling to reconcile with her mother's legacy-caught between her duty to her chosen family and her calling to lead humankind into a better future among the stars.    Octavia E. Butler's bestselling literary science-fiction masterpieces are essential works in feminist, Afrofuturist, and fantasy genres, and this compelling graphic novel adaptation of Parable of the Talents is a major event.\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardback","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55206291243381,"sku":"9781419749483","price":18.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9781419749483_f74bc071-f7df-4dc1-b6c4-d7017235bd56.jpg?v=1748095943","url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/9781419749483","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
