A review by raulbime
At the Bottom of the River by Jamaica Kincaid

4.0

Beautiful short stories that have a dream-like quality to them. Mostly an exploration of mother-daughter relationships and relations to home. Kincaid's writing where every punctuation and word are part of the intricate work is wonderful discovery. Strange how reading her feels like sighing, that sigh after a nice cold drink on a hot day. In admiration of how she is able to achieve so much with such few words.
