La trilogia olvidada de la gran dama de la ciencia ficcion.

Treinta anos despues de su primera publicacion en castellano, La estirpe de Lilith, titulo que reune la Trilogia Xenogenesis en un solo volumen, vuelve a las librerias dispuesta a reivindicar a Octavia E. Butler como la gran pionera que deslumbro en ciencia ficcion siendo una mujer negra. Hoy se la considera la primera escritora afroamericana de genero en incorporarse al canon de la literatura norteamericana.

Lilith Iyapo despierta en una nave espacial oankali, la raza alienigena que salvo a la humanidad de la extincion despues de que la Tierra quedase devastada a causa de una guerra nuclear. Estos seres han mantenido a Lilith y a otros supervivientes dormidos en animacion suspendida durante siglos. Ella sera la elegida que guiara a los suyos de vuelta a su propio planeta, ahora dominado por la naturaleza salvaje, para que aprendan a vivir en el y se conviertan en la semilla de una nueva estirpe. Pero todo intercambio tiene una contrapartida: su descendencia no sera humana. O no exactamente. Bienvenidos a la poderosa epopeya interplanetaria que ha convertido a Octavia E. Butler en un mito.

«Hable con unos treinta o cuarenta escritores negros de genero que publicaban relatos cortos, novelas y demas, y todos lo hacian porque Octavia E. Butler les habia abierto el camino.» -N. K. Jemisin.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

The acclaimed trilogy that comprises Lilith's Brood is Hugo and Nebula award-winner Octavia E. Butler at her best.

Presented for the first time in one volume with an introduction by Joan Slonczewski, Ph.D., Lilith's Brood is a profoundly evocative, sensual -- and disturbing -- epic of human transformation.

Lilith Iyapo is in the Andes, mourning the death of her family, when war destroys Earth. Centuries later, she is resurrected -- by miraculously powerful unearthly beings, the Oankali. Driven by an irresistible need to heal others, the Oankali are rescuing our dying planet by merging genetically with mankind. But Lilith and all humanity must now share the world with uncanny, unimaginably alien creatures: their own children. This is their story...
