Paperback. Condition: NEUF. Pendant longtemps, Octavia E. Butler a représenté une singularité au sein des littératures de l'imaginaire anglophones : une femme noire écrivant de la science-fiction.Née en 1947 en Californie, Octavia Butler grandit dans des États-Unis où sévit encore la ségégration. Enfant introvertie, elle trouve une échappatoire avec les littératures de genre. En 1970, elle fait ses premiers pas dans le fandom américain. Sur les conseils de Harlan Ellison, elle participe à l'atelier d'écriture Clarion, où elle se lie d'amitié avec Samuel Delany - écrivain noir de SF lui aussi. C'est justement à Ellison que Butler vend sa première nouvelle. Elle publie en 1979 son premier chef-d'oeuvre, Liens de sang : l'histoire d'une femme propulsée dans le passé esclavagiste des USA. Sa novelette " Bloodchild " (1985) emportera tous les prix importants du domaine : Hugo, Nebula, Locus. Dans ses récits, Butler fait la part belle à des protagonistes féminins forts, aux origines ethniques ou sociales variées.Dans les années 90, Butler publie La Parabole du Semeur et La Parabole des talents, diptyque qui lui assurera la renommée. En 1995, elle est la première écrivaine de SF à recevoir la bourse de la Fondation McArthur.Elle publie ce qui sera son dernier roman, Novice, en 2005, et décède en 2006 à l'âge de 58 ans, laissant derrière elle une oeuvre restreinte mais riche de thématiques puissantes. Une oeuvre souvent associée à l'afrofuturisme, ayant pavé le chemin pour les auteurs contemporains, de N.K. Jemisin à Colson Whitehead.L'équipe de Bifrost s'intéressera à cette écrivaine essentielle au travers d'une biographie signé Pascal J.Thomas, d'un article d'Octavia Butler portant sur son parcours, d'une étude de Ketty Steward sur le thème de l'empathie - transversal à toute l'oeuvre de l'autrice -, d'une interview de Marion Mazauric, qui mène depuis des années un travail de fonds sur Butler, et d'un guide de lecture, sans oublier une bibliographie complète. - Nombre de page(s) : 192 - Poids : 262g - Langue : ANGLAIS - Genre : Science fiction / Fantastique / Terreur Revues BIFROST.
