Background:
A dystopian novel is one that is set in a near-future post-apocalyptic world whose inhabitants suffer extreme misery and oppression, and which often exaggerates the problems present in the writers own time and place. This essay asks you to examine the dystopia of Octavia E. Butlers Parable of the Sower in comparison to the world that we live in.

Assignment:
As you examine the novel Parable of the Sower by Octavia E. Butler, closely analyze its representation of a real-life social issue that we currently face in our time and place. Compare the issue in the novel with the issue in present-day society, in an essay of 1,200 to 2,000 words. Some examples of social issues include: climate change/environmental issues and their impacts on humans and society, borders/border walls, gender roles, drugs/drug epidemics, race/racism, and many others. (COVID-19 update: I feel as though there is some comparison here between the novel and the current pandemic. I am writing t

Analysis Prompt: At the end of the story, Pancake crafts a final image of Hollis succumbing to the reality of his dire situation. Pancake uses funeral imagery to describe Hollis as he takes his nap, and we can assume Pancake wants to convey how dead and hopeless Hollis feels.

Provide support for your claims; Use quotes from the text
Develop your analysis in each body paragraph but only one point per paragraph
Discuss his main conflict within the story/why he would feel so dead
You may want to analyze symbols/symbolism which help to reveal his feelings
You may want to describe and/or use examples from the text /Pancake's descriptions of the setting to support your understanding of Hollis' feelings
Maybe discuss family relationships, guilt and neglect--are these factors?
