At The Bottom Of The River, Jamaica Kincaid

"At the Bottom of the River" by Jamaica Kincaid is a poignant exploration of childhood, memory, and identity, largely rooted in the author's experiences growing up on the Caribbean island of Antigua. This work comprises ten interconnected stories that reflect the complexities of mother-daughter relationships, particularly the intense and sometimes overpowering bond between the two. Kincaid narrates these tales primarily from a child's perspective, skillfully blending the external world with the internal landscapes of dreams, fantasies, and mysticism.
