Notatnik Octavii Butler

Octavia Butler (1947–2006) was a groundbreaking author whose visionary storytelling transformed the landscape of science fiction and speculative thought. Born in Pasadena, California, she began crafting stories as a child and went on to write fifteen novels, along with influential short stories and essays. In 1995, she became the first science fiction writer to receive a MacArthur Fellowship, earning recognition as a literary pioneer. Butler’s works, ranging from the Hugo Award–winning Bloodchild to the Nebula Award–winning Parable of the Talents, explored power, identity, and survival through richly imagined worlds. Often associated with Afrofuturism, her stories featured multi-ethnic and multi-species characters whose resilience and vision embodied the potential for radical transformation. • Large size notebook • cover is letterpress printed in blue violet ink with original linocut illustration on 100# grout gray paper • 72 blank 100% recycled page • interior is perfect bound on the left, then glued and finished in our studio • measures 4.5”x7” with two rounded corners and packaged in a cello sleeve
