Conversations with Nalo Hopkinson

A key figure in contemporary speculative fiction, Jamaican-born Canadian Nalo Hopkinson (b. 1960) is the first Black queer woman as well as the youngest person to be named a Grand Master by the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America. Her Caribbean-inspired narratives— Brown Girl in the Ring , Midnight Robber , The Salt Roads , The New Moon’s Arms , The Chaos , and Sister Mine —project complex futures and complex identities for people of color in terms of race, sex, and gender.
