Garden City, NY: Doubleday & Company, Inc, 1979. First edition of Butler's classic bestselling novel. Octavo, original half cloth. Presentation copy, inscribed by the author on the title page, "To Steve Best wishes Octavia E. Butler." Near fine in a near fine dust jacket. Jacket illustration by Larry Schwinger. Jacket typography by Elizabeth Levine. First editions of this classic Butler novel are scarce, signed examples exceedingly so. In this spellbinding novel, Octavia E. Butler has written a closely observed, intensely felt account of a young black woman who is drawn irresistibly into her family's past. Superimposing a fully realized historical chronicle on the classic science fiction premise, Kindred explores the dynamics and dilemmas of antebellum slavery from the sensibility of a late 20th-century black woman who finds herself being shuttled through time, existing at times in her Los Angeles, California home, and at others on her ancestor's pre-Civil War Maryland plantation.
