Dungaree Girl

Today my comrade in the dungarees produced a wonderful presentation regarding Jamaica Kincaid's erudite exploration of the mind of an Antiguan teen-aged, disillusioned girl working as an aupair in New York City, entitled: Lucy. The dungaree girl cross-referenced Paradise Lost, and how the presentation of the Devil, Lucifer informed the characterisation of Kincaid's protagonist. It was superb, and could have been drawn out for another ten minutes had she the time. Perhaps I was wrong to judge, but I'm sticking to my opinions.
