After nuclear war destroys humanity, Lilith Iyapo awakens aboard an alien ship. The Oankali, a gene-trading species, offer to rebuild Earth but require human cooperation in their genetic experiments. As Lilith grapples with trust and survival, she uncovers the complex motives behind their 'rescue.' Octavia Butler's visionary tale challenges notions of humanity in a radically altered world.
