Falling in Love with Hominids

De: Nalo Hopkinson

Narrado por: Bahni Turpin

Nalo Hopkinson, author of Brown Girl in the Ring, The Salt Roads, and Sister Mine, is an internationally-beloved storyteller. Hailed by the Los Angeles Times as having "an imagination that most of us would kill for," her Afro-Caribbean, Canadian, and American influences shine in truly unique stories that are filled with striking imagery, unlikely beauty, and delightful strangeness.

In this long-awaited collection, Hopkinson continues to expand the boundaries of culture and imagination. Whether she is retelling The Tempest as a new Caribbean myth, filling a shopping mall with unfulfilled ghosts, or herding chickens that occasionally breathe fire, Hopkinson continues to create bold fiction that transcends boundaries and borders.

Contains mature themes.

Short story collection

Nalo Hopkinson’s Falling in Love with Hominids is a collection of more than a dozen short stories that are mostly of a quirky, unremarkable type. Narration is decent with moderate character distinction.

what imaginative range!

Nalo is the best writer of the time in magical realism/speculative fiction. Enjoyed every story
