READ TO ME is the podcast where we listen for what we love, inspired by the Gateless Writing method. In this episode, we read from THE PARABLE OF THE SOWER by Octavia Butler. It's the terrifying passage that isn't only heartache. We learn how a character's observations show us their heart and smarts. We see how Butler puts degradation and humanity in the same sentence. We see how awful things can be, and are right now, but also how something better could be.
