#PostOfTheWeek (season 2):
Decades ago, the writer Octavia Butler had imagined a Los Angeles ravaged by fires. The Altadena cemetery where the science fiction and Afrofuturism author is buried did catch fire last week but suffered “minimal damage,” according to a statement on the cemetery's web site.
A spokesperson at the Mountain View cemetery confirmed the accuracy of the website's announcement to The Associated Press, but would not comment on the status of individual markers.
