Nalo Hopkinson è un'autrice molto apprezzata, nota principalmente per il suo lavoro nel genere della narrativa speculativa. È nata a Jamaica il 20 dicembre 1960 e ha trascorso l'infanzia in vari paesi caraibici, tra cui Trinidad e Guyana, prima di trasferirsi con la famiglia a Toronto, in Canada, nel 1977. Le sue esperienze culturali diverse hanno influenzato notevolmente la sua scrittura, che spesso attinge alla storia, alla lingua e alle tradizioni narrative caraibiche.
Hopkinson è autrice di diversi romanzi, tra cui "Brown Girl in the Ring", "Midnight Robber", "The Salt Roads" e "The New Moon's Arms", nonché di numerose short stories. Il suo lavoro è stato elogiato per la sua immaginazione e l'approccio innovativo alla narrazione, nonché per l'esplorazione di temi come razza, genere e sessualità.
Oltre al suo lavoro come scrittrice, Hopkinson è anche una editor e insegnante di successo. Ha insegnato scrittura creativa e letteratura in diverse università, tra cui l'University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) e l'University of Toronto. Ha inoltre editato diverse antologie, tra cui "Whispers from the Cotton Tree Root: Caribbean Fabulist Fiction" e "Mojo: Conjure Stories".
Nel corso della sua carriera, Hopkinson ha ricevuto numerosi premi e riconoscimenti per il suo lavoro. È vincitrice del Warner Aspect First Novel award, del Sunburst Award per la letteratura canadese di genere fantastico, del World Fantasy Award e del Gaylactic Spectrum Award. Il suo lavoro ha anche ricevuto una menzione d'onore al Casa de las Americas Prize per la letteratura a Cuba. Nonostante questi riconoscimenti, Hopkinson rimane una scrittrice umile e dedicata, impegnata ad esplorare le vaste possibilità della narrativa speculativa e a spingere i confini del genere.
