Book Review of Lucy

Lucy
Lucy
Author: Jamaica Kincaid
Genre: Literature & Fiction
Book Type: Paperback

Lucy is a girl from a Caribbean island who goes to work as a nanny in New York City; similar to Jamaica Kincaid's life story. It is told in the first person, with her thoughts about the people she meets and her feelings about her family and experiences back home. I heard the author speak and found her a very interesting person.
