Book Review: A SMALL PLACE by Jamaica Kincaid

Jamaica Kincaid’s essay “A Small Place” is a sarcastic reprimand to those who travel without regard. As someone who loves traveling, I felt this essay was thought provoking and gave me much to think about when I travel in the future. Antigua is a beautiful country, but there is more going on behind the scenes of this so-called paradise.

can you please provide the exact pages from the book where tourists have neither idea nor respect for small islands, and also the pages where the author uses more second - pronouns?if you could provide the pages you read from, it would be helpful . thanks

From my edition I read excerpts from pages 4-5, 13-14, and 36-37 and the book sticks with the 2nd person narration for about the first half of the book and then the second half turns more into a more traditional first person narrative, I hope that helps 😊
