Book
Octavia E. Butler's Parable of the talents [graphic novel] : a graphic novel adaptation / by Damian Duffy, John Jennings & David Brame ; lettering, Damian Duffy.
"Parable of the talents is told in the voice of Lauren Olamina's daughter, Asha Vere--from whom she has been separated for most of the girl's life--interspersed with sections in the form of Lauren's own journals. Against a background of a war-torn continent under the control of a Christian fundamentalist fascist state, Asha searches for answers about her own past while struggling to reconcile with her mother's legacy--caught between her duty to her chosen family and her calling to lead humankind into a better future among the stars"-- Provided by publisher.
