Patricia Schonstein (born 1952), who also writes under the name Patricia Schonstein-Pinnock, is a South African-Italian novelist, poet, author of children’s books and curator of anthologies. Schonstein, whose novels variously employ the genres of magical-realism, meta-fiction and narrative fiction, is famous for novels such as Skyline and A Time of Angels. Schonstein’s novels draw heavily on her personal experiences of growing up in Central Africa and to historical events related to the Inquisition, the Holocaust, the Rhodesian War and Apartheid. She pays homage to the child-victims of war in Africa and to refugees, weaving together harsh realities with elements of myth and magic. {{Infobox person| name = Patricia Schonstein | image = Patricia Schonstein.jpg | birth_name = Patricia Schonstein | birth_date = March 12, 1952 (age 65) | birth_place = Bulawayo, Southern Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe) | occupation = Author | spouse = Don Pinnock | awards = Prix du Marais 2005, Percy FitzPatrick Award 2002 | website = www.patriciaschonstein.com }} LifeBorn and raised in Southern Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe), Schonstein lives in South Africa where she works as a full-time author.
