Parable of the Talents: Ch 14

<p>A dense, bruising, painful chapter.</p> <p>A year has passed. A year of enslavement at Camp Christian. With an escape attempt, and its consequences. And a brutal, wasteful, pointless war.</p> <p>We learn more of Larkin’s childhood life in her adoptive family, with its cruelties and violations.</p> <p>Sickness strikes Camp Christian. A betrayal. A storm. And liberation.</p> <p>Toshi and adrienne explore chapter 14 of Octavia E. Butler’s Parable of the Talents, and as always, offer questions for you and your people to consider.</p> <p>Follow us on twitter&nbsp;<a href="https://twitter.com/oparables"><strong>@oparables</strong></a>, and support us on Patreon at&nbsp;<a href="https://www.patreon.com/oparables"><strong>Octavia's Parables</strong></a>.
