ESSAY ON: Kincaid's Lucy in the Heat of Despair

Number of Pages 6

This research paper: In the process of self-actualization, Erickson would say, every girl has to overcome her upbringing to become an individual. Jamaica Kincaid’s character Lucy makes the break dramatic beyond typical rebellion. Lucy suffers anarchy against the role of woman in society, and in particular, the expected role of mother. Because Lucy must leave behind this traditional role, she uses hate for her mother to prevent a return to or desire for traditional roles so that she has the chance to change and grow individually outside of constraints suffered by women. 1 work cited. jvKinLuc.rtf
