1978réf. 223151978. Sci-FiAfrican AmericanLiterature Butler Octavia E. Mind of My Mind. New York: Avon 1978. First Avon Mass market paperback edition with striking psychedelic-style cover art depicting a green-skinned woman with glowing eyes and intersecting telepathic beams of light underscoring the novel's speculative and psychic themes. The second book in Butler's groundbreaking Patternist series Mind of My Mind centers on Mary a powerful telepath whose emergence signals a new evolutionary leap for humanity. Mary's narrative is deeply intertwined with African diasporic identity and the complexities of inherited power. As Mary asserts her own psychic authority she challenges patriarchal and racial legacies embedded in her father's centuries-long domination. The novel's intersection of speculative fiction and Black feminist thought marks Butler as one of the genre's most visionary figures. With its themes of collective consciousness reproductive agency and telepathic connection the book anticipates later scholarship on Afrofuturism and queer futurity. As literary scholar Sandra Govan noted Butler's Patternist series "presents a vision of a black future that transcends traditional genre boundaries" Govan 1986. Spine creased moderate edgewear and rubbing to wrappers some toning and corner creasing to rear. Text block uniformly toned but internally clean and unmarked. Overall very good condition. Mind of My Mind remains a pivotal work in Black speculative fiction exploring psychic liberation and the creation of a matriarchal future. unknown
