The wise words of science fiction icon octavia e. butler live on in this beautiful and giftable little volume. “there’s no single answer that will solve all our future problems. there’s no magic bullet. instead there are thousands of answers—at least. you can be one of them if you choose to be.”

originally published in essence magazine in the year 2000, octavia e. butler’s essay “a few rules for predicting the future” offers an honest look into the inspiration behind her science fiction novels and the importance of studying history and taking responsibility for our actions if we are to move forward.

organized into four main rules, this short essay reminds readers to learn from the past, respect the law of consequences, be aware of their perspectives, and count on the surprises.
