Summary of the book Annie John

Summary of the book “Annie John” By: Jamaica Kinkaid. This book is a book of reality, a book of self-discovery. This is a book that you read and as you are reading it you can identify with the character, what he/she does and how she/he reacts to happenings around her/him. The story is set in and around the Dominican Republic, around the 1950-60’s. The main character in this book is Annie …

…Many of Annie’s thoughts are quite reflective on the way she was raised and where she was raised. Many if the characteristics also are easy to find within our selves. I find this book to be an easy read book about universal truths, knowledge, and experiences that most of us have already experienced or if not, should experience. Annie John is a definite must on a list of leisure and fun books to read.
