- Summary
- Dana, a young black writer, can't explain how she is transported across time and space from her house in 1970s California to a plantation in Maryland and the frightening world of the antebellum South. But she does quickly understand why: to deal with the troubles of Rufus, a conflcted white slaveholder--and her progenitor. Her very existence depends on it. This graphic-novel adaptation of Octavia E. Butler's classic is a powerfully moving, unflinching look at the violent, disturbing effects of slavery on the people it chained together, both black and white--and made kindred in the deepest sense of the word
