ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Lawrence Hill

Lawrence Hill nasceu em 1957 no Canadá e é professor de Escrita Criativa na Universidade de Guelph, no Ontário. Em 2005 ganhou o seu primeiro prémio literário: o National Magazine Award pelo seu artigo "Is Africa's Pain Black America's Burden?", publicado na revista The Walrus. Mas foi o seu terceiro romance, O Livro dos Negros (publicado nalguns países sob os títulos Someone Knows My Name ou Aminata), que atraiu a atenção generalizada dos leitores e da crítica. Entre os inúmeros prémios e nomeações que a obra recebeu, destacam-se o Rogers Writers' Trust Fiction Prize (em cuja lista de vencedores figuram nomes como Alice Munro e Emma Donoghue) e o Commonwealth Writers' Prize.
