Beautifully written! This book was beautifully written and extremely informative. I loved all the poems and then the detailed explanations afterwards. I recommend this book for fans of Octavia E. Butler and for people who want to read her books but haven't yet. I bought the Kindle ebook version but I will be ordering a physical copy as well, thank you so much for this beautiful and unique biography.
