Girl is written in a very different style than what most readers are used to experiencing. Instead of having a developed plot – it is one long paragraph of instructions from one person to another. After viewing the Kincaid bio Video, read her very short, short story “Girl” and comment on the following:
First, what did you find most interesting about Kincaid in her Bio video? It could be a comment Kincaid said or information about her. Then, after reading “Girl” answer these: What do you think was the purpose of Kincaid setting up her short story the way she did? Did you like or not like it, and why? What do you think the message is that Kincaid is making with her story? How would you describe the relationship between the narrator and the “girl” she’s speaking to? Answer beyond just what they are to each other, but instead look at personality and how they communicate and why. What in the text supports your opinion?https://youtu.be/tNLyp0wPDCw?si=T14nfaSNeUFgfR9L
