About

Octavia Butler's literary genius was paired with an unflinching critique of the human condition. This event considers Butler's "Speech Sounds" through the shared inquiry model of Seminar and the theoretical frameworks of linguistic anthropology. What does fiction reveal about fact and is the dividing line between those concepts as rigid as we assume?
