    What an INCREDIBLE and ELOQUENT writer! She's such a beautiful human being and her voice is so soothing! I want to take a class of her's at Harvard!

    I've started reading her books last summer and fell in love with each of them. Her writing is so vivid, so powerful and in my case, as a person who hasn't read much of post-colonial literature, a real punch in the stomach sometimes but a necessary one, to open my eyes to a new culture.

    I just love Jamaica Kincaid. Her prose is beautiful. She is one of my she-roes. I have read three of her novels. The Caribbean novelist she is.

    Amazing woman! Witty, clever, with a very subtle respectless humor! "Being a slut might be a very agreeable way of life - You can't have too much slutness" :D

    I don’t know that a person who says the point. Of education is to, “not be” should be teaching.
