Science fiction is so much more than space travel and aliens: good science fiction examines gender, race, technology and more to show us new worlds of possibilities. In this book club we’ll explore classic and contemporary stories set in fantastic lands, and how those stories shape the future we envision for ourselves.
The first book for discussion will be The Parable of the Sower by Octavia E Butler, a modern classic about the rise of a teenage zealot in a world on the verge of collapse.
Of This and Other Worlds book group will take place on the third Wednesday of every month, beginning on the 18th of March. A place at the reading group is £5 and this voucher can be used on the night of the event against the purchase of any book in the shop.
