Extractions: "In sparse prose punctuated with the most economical yet precise description, Ms. Kincaid's Lucy makes an accounting of her first year abroad a year in which she never quite arrives where she expected to be, or even unpacks her trunk of documents that purport to show who she is and what she will be doing."

Extractions: All novelists are exiles in this world, isolated by their solitary visions of the human experience and the peculiar demands of their craft. Even their most inspired work culminates in displacement, loss and abandonment: No writer can really begin a new book until he has gathered up all the false starts, anxieties, pride and shame that went into the last one, dumped everything into the dustbin, slammed the lid down tight and walked away. ``This most simple of movements, the turning of your back, is among the most difficult to make,'' writes Jamaica Kincaid in this eagerly awaited and entirely gratifying new novel, ``but once it has been made you cannot imagine it was hard to accomplish.'' Yet for Kincaid who turned her back on her native Antigua at 17, but whose fiction remains defined by her childhood yearnings for her mother's love, her postcolonial birthright of poverty and political corruption, and her status as a citizen of no place and everywhere there are no clean breaks, no new beginnings. Kincaid now lives and writes in Vermont, but in her exile world there are no amicable divorces from the people and places of the past. ``I've never really written about anyone except myself and my mother,'' Kincaid once told an interviewer. And since her first novel, the celebrated coming-of-age tale ``Annie John,'' was published in 1985, no rigid boundaries have separated the imagined from the remembered in her work. The West Indies curls like a vine around her words and spirit. Her sentences throb with its rhythm, mysterious and reassuring as a heartbeat. Little collisions of myth, metaphor, memoir, fact, fantasy and truth illuminate her prose in the same odd, slightly off-balance way that the noon sunlight shimmers across the surface of some languid, tropical sea.

http://www.chron.com/cs/CDA/story.hts/ae/books/ch1/1434420

Extractions: And on that day Mr. Potter drove Mr. Shoul's car to the jetty to await a large steamer coming from some benighted place in the world, someplace far away where there had been upheavals and displacements and murder and terror. Mr. Potter was not unfamiliar with upheavals and displacements and murder and terror; his very existence in the world in which he lived had been made possible by such things, but he did not dwell on them and he could not dwell on them any more than he could dwell on breathing. And so Mr. Potter met Dr. Weizenger. This sentence should begin with Dr. Weizenger emerging, getting off the launch that has brought him from his ship which is lying in the deep part of the harbor, but this is Mr. Potter's life and so Dr. Weizenger must never begin a sentence; I am not making an authorial decision, or a narrative decision, I only say this because it is so true: Mr. Potter's life is his own and no one else should take precedence. And so this sentence, this paragraph, will begin in this way:

http://www.chron.com/cs/CDA/story.hts/ae/books/reviews/1500043

Extractions: IF you're familiar with Jamaica Kincaid's fiction, you've come to expect rich prose marked by descriptive fire and ice. Her first novel, Annie John, is a lavishly conceived landscape where objects and people are so sharply defined they seem to bound right off the page. Lucy and The Autobiography of My Mother have that same descriptive power and narratives that don't shy away from often harrowing sexual details. Don't expect any of that in Kincaid's latest "novel," based on her absentee father. In
