    <body><![CDATA[I've been carrying around this book for years and have never managed to read it. I finally thought I'd crack the cover after loving &quot;A Small Place&quot; so much. I'm very much enthralled by the story so far and it's very hard to remember it's fiction. Of course all fiction is autobiography, and all autobiography is fiction, right? Kincaid's writing casts the process of adolescence as experienced from the inside in a unwaveringly precise and nearly clinical light. I can see why this has become a &quot;classic&quot; coming of age novel.]]></body>
