β¦ Synopsis
Nalo Hopkinson (Brown Girl in the Ring, Skin Folk) is widely hailed as a significant voice in Afro-Caribbean, Canadian, and American fiction. She has been dubbed by Junot Diaz as "one of our most important writers," by the New York Times as stunning, and by Dorothy Allison as simply triumphant.
Hopkinson's vivid tales are an eclectic mix of modern fantasy and folklore. In them she continues to expands the boundaries of culture and imagination. These stories are occupied by creatures unpredictable and strange: chickens that breathe fire, adults who eat children, and spirits that haunt shopping malls.
Falling in Love with Hominids presents more than a dozen years of Hopkinson's new, uncollected fiction, much of which is unavailable in print, as well as one original story, "Flying Lessons."
