I'll admit, I much prefer Butler's straight sci-fi novels-I find them compelling and captivating in a way I don't with her other topics. That said, this was a powerful and intense book that should be required reading for anyone reading about slavery in the US in the 19th century. Butler's spare writing lends itself to graphic descriptions in places, but it's actually kind of refreshing to see that in this kind of novel. Recommended even with a four-star rating
