Parable of the Sower is a 1993 post-apocalyptic science fiction novel by Octavia E. Butler, the first in her Parable Series. Set in a near-future California ravaged by climate change and economic collapse, the story follows Lauren Olamina, a young Black woman with hyperempathy, as she escapes her destroyed community and journeys north, developing a new philosophy called Earthseed. The novel is a prescient warning about social inequality, environmental disaster, and the potential for hope and a new destiny.
