Hello world!
Lauren walks north along highways, scavenging. She gradually forms a small community of survivors: a quiet ex-con named Zahra , a sharp-tongued older woman named Natividad with her baby, a white male banker named Harry , a young man named Travis and his sister Emery , and finally a former doctor, Jill , and an engineer, Allie .
Lauren lives in a gated community near L.A. Her father is a Baptist minister. She suffers from “hyperempathy syndrome” – a neurological condition causing her to feel real pain when she sees others hurt. She secretly develops a new religion called Earthseed , whose central idea is: “God is Change.” Parable Of The Sower By Octavia
