I'll add a couple more to this list:

Nalo Hopkinson. Read and enjoyed greatly her Skin Folk and The Salt Roads. Interesting voice and some of the tones are very Caribbean, which is a plus to me.

Ben Okri, The Famished Road - This book won Britain's prestigious Booker prize about 10-11 years ago, I think, and I'm about to start on it. Premise looks promising, set in Nigeria, I believe.

And I keep thinking there's more I know, but I'll have to search through my collection to recall them all.

¿Qué es la vida?: un frenesí.
¿Qué es la vida?: una ilusión,
una sombra, una ficción,
y el mayor bien es pequeño,
que toda la vida es sueño,
y los sueños, sueños son.


Calderón de la Barca, La vida es sueño

Is this the same guy who wrote the Prestige?
