Summary

Jamaica Kincaid: Small Town

"It is not difficult to explain the fact that local residents do not like tourists, because every local from anywhere is a potential tourist, and every tourist is a local from somewhere. Every local lives a life of immense and devastating banality, boredom, despair and depression, and every act, good or bad, is an attempt to forget it. Every local would like to find a way out of this, every local would like to rest, every local would like to to go on a trip. but some locals - most of the people in the world - are too poor to go anywhere; they are too poor to live in a place where you want to go - so when the locals see you, they envy your ability to leave their everyday banality turn banality and boredom into your source of pleasure."

Jamaica Kincaid

One of the most important Anglophone writers and essayists from the Caribbean. Her writing, which is neither completely feminist nor Afrocentric, is now seen by critics as unique in the polyphony of modern Caribbean and American literature. He is Professor in Residence of African and African-American Studies at Harvard, where he also teaches creative writing.
