Lost Futures Crossover! "Bloodchild" by Octavia Butler w/ The Socialist Shelf

Party Girls

Earlier this week, Aaron sat down with Jacob and Joss, the hosts of The Socialist Shelf — a podcast about good fiction and changing the world — to discuss three stories from Octavia Butler's short story collection, "Bloodchild" ("Bloodchild," "Amnesty," and "Book of Martha").

How does one sanitize literally being eaten alive? What would you do with the powers of a God? Who's more evil, alien invaders or the US government? (Okay, that one's obvious.)

Check out Jacob (who also runs the The Socialist Shelf Twitter account) and Joss over on social media, and listen to their podcast!
