Extractions: By Jaime Manrique Dec. 20, 1999 T he protagonist of Jamaica Kincaid's 1985 novel "Annie John" remembers her mother in Antigua this way: "Sometimes she might call out to me to go and get some thyme or basil or some other herb for her, for she grew all her herbs in little pots that she kept in a corner of our little garden. Sometimes when I gave her the herbs, she might stoop down and kiss me on my lips and then on my neck. It was in such a paradise that I lived." The remembrance of that paradise lost is at the core of just about all the fiction and memoirs Kincaid has written. With her new collection of essays, "My Garden (Book):," the author pays, perhaps inadvertently, her most heartfelt homage to the Caribbean island where she was born and from which she exiled herself to become a writer.

Extractions: Jamaica Kincaid's twisted quest for self began with her May 25, 1949 birth in Antigua. She was then christened Elaine Potter Richardson, but when she fled the island at the age of seventeen, she left her family as well as her name behind and entered North America as Jamaica Kincaid. Her life should seem familiar to those who know her heavily autobiographical work. She worked first in New York City as an au pair, for an upper class family much like the one pictured in Lucy . She left this work to study photography at the New School for Social Research and then went on to Franconia College in New Hampshire (but did not take a degree) before returning to New York. There she became a regular contributor to the New Yorker magazine, writing for nearly twenty years (1976-1995) before the arrival of new management convinced her to leave. She now resides in Bennington Vermont with her husband and children. Contemporary Authors, New Revision Series

Kincaid cares little about the distinction between fiction and nonfiction since all of her incantatory yet thorny works are insistently self-referential. The Autobiography of My Mother (1996) was her last novel, followed by the piercing family memoir, My Brother Donna Seaman (Booklist/March 1, 2002) Top of Page Adult Booklist Index Booklist Archive ...

Extractions: Jamaica Kincaid, page 2 Y ou left Antigua to come to the United States when you were seventeen. Did you have any idea, in the back of your head, that you might someday be a writer? None. Absolutely none. I came here to be an au pair in New York although servant is the word I prefer. I came to work as a servant, in somebody's house, as one of those many ladies you see with little blonde children. And when I first arrived I was incredibly depressed and lonely. I didn't know there was such a world as the literary world. I didn't know anything, except maybe how to put one foot in front of the other. Yet you were somewhat educated, weren't you? Yes. In school we read English writers Kipling, Carlyle, people like that. It was as if, as children, we were all being prepared for MFAs. We were all given this incredible literature to read. And my mother read, although she never read fiction. She read textbooks on health and the body, and she read biographies Mozart, Florence Nightingale, and such people. As a child, I've heard, you would steal books from libraries.

Extractions: Click here for more information about the MoJournal Jamaica Kincaid Hates Happy Endings interview by Marilyn Snell J amaica Kincaid's life reads like an American Cinderella story: born and raised in poverty on the island of Antigua, West Indies; unloved by an unresponsive and often abusive mother who shipped her off to the United States at 17 to be an au pair (Kincaid insists on the word "servant" to describe her employment status); "discovered" on the streets of Manhattan by New Yorker columnist George Trow, who brought her into the fold of the magazine by printing one of her articles in the "Talk of the Town" section; became a celebrated fiction writer ( Annie John, Lucy, The Autobiography of My Mother ) and gardening columnist; married the son of legendary New Yorker editor William Shawn; and moved to the idyll of North Bennington, Vermont, where she now writes, gardens, teaches, and tends to her family, which includes two beautiful children. Why, then, does this 48-year-old woman, who speaks with an accent both lilting and sweet, feel it's her "duty to make everyone a little less happy"?

Extractions: Home Brief Biography Works by Kingsley Secondary Works by Author ... Secondary Works by Date Jamaica Kincaid Wallace, Jo-Ann De-Scribing The Water-Babies : The Child in Post-Colonial Theory, in Chris Tiffin and Alan Lawson (eds.) De-Scribing Empire: Post-colonialism and Textuality (London and New York: Routledge, 1994): 171-184. Wallace argues that whereas the child in The Water-Babies is the center of educational, social reform and imperialist debate, he is depoliticized in the 1984 abridged Puffin Classics edition and repoliticized in Jamaica Kincaids 1983 short story Wingless. The Puffin edition, mirroring post-colonialist guilt, is paradigmatic of the Wests continuing and contradictory investment in a vision of child hood as a universal unmarked by class, place, or history. However, Wingless, disallows such a disavowal of historical and geographical specificity by returning both the text of The Water-Babies and the child reader to colonialist history (182).
