"Engaging Caribbean fantasy tales"
SKIN FOLK is a unique anthology collection that contains
fifteen Caribbean fantasy tales centering on a sly look at
everyday people struggling with incredible often seemingly
impossible situations. The key to each entry is that the
cast feels genuine regardless of the scenario the
individual encounters. That is quite an accomplishment
from award winning Nalo Hopkinson when one considers that
the characters include a geriatric Red Riding Hood and the
wolf among other cast members. Anyone who enjoys a deep
look at humanity's ability to overcome frailty, flaws, and
errors will enjoy this divine speculative fiction anthology. Harriet Klausner
