About
Join the Auburn Avenue Literary Society, a bi-monthly book club dedicated to celebrating and exploring the richness of African American literature—bridging the classics that shaped our past with contemporary works redefining our present. Our October gathering will feature a discussion of Parable of the Sower by Octavia E. Butler, a powerful work of speculative fiction set in a near-future America unraveling under climate disaster, economic collapse, and social unrest. The novel follows Lauren Olamina, a young visionary who develops a new belief system called Earthseed as she journeys north in search of safety and community. Come ready to dive deep into conversation, share your reflections, and connect with fellow readers in an atmosphere that honors history, imagination, and community. Light refreshments will be provided. Discover. Discuss. Celebrate the words that shape our world. Auburn Avenue Research Library hosts this free Fulton County Library event in Atlanta, with 6:30 PM-7:45 PM, room or area: Authors' & Writers' Lounge. Expect a library-led reading, book, or discussion format rather than a ticketed performance. The library event page is the source for current capacity and access notes.
