| thing.description | N. K. Jemisin was born in Iowa City, Iowa, in 1972. Her first novel, The Hundred Thousand Kingdoms and subsequent sequels received critical acclaim. She is best known for The Broken Earth trilogy, whose three novels were the recipients of the Hugo Award, making Jemisin the first African-American author to receive the award in the category for best novel and the only author to have won three consecutive Hugos. Jemisin’s writing is considered to portray elements of afrofuturism, dealing mostly with themes of cultural conflicts, oppression, and persecution. |
