I'm an English teacher - and I'm having a hard time locating good authors who wrote about colonialism and/or postcolonialism. Jamaica Kincaid would be good - but her stuff isn't available on line because it's still copyrighted. Do you guys know any author who might be good that is available online?

so i got 4 new ones at the library and i honestly dont know ANYTHING about any of them, so if you've read them then could you just tell me if they're good or not? thankss :) 1) Girl With a Pearl Earring -- Tracy Chevelier 2) The Lady and the Unicorn -- Tracy Chevelier 3) Annie John -- Jamaica Kincaid 4) The color Purlple -- Alice Walker also, if you have any good books that you'd like to recommend then tell me! i LOVE a great and terrible beauty, and teen drama romances set around the 1800's ALSO, if you've read Atonement, or Blood of Flowers, could you give me reviews on those too? thanks!

Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte Annie John by Jamaica Kincaid Does anyone see a common theme between these two works? What is that common theme?

where can i find it?

Jamaica Kincaid's "Girl," Joyce Carol Oates' "Where Are You Going, Where Have You Been?" Raymond Carver's "Cathedral," James Baldwin's "Sonny's Blues," thats not the whole sentence.. just part of it, the question is... do i put a comma after the question mark? after "Where Have You Been?" to connect the thoughts or no?

I really need help, What is the attitude of this passage? It would be very much apreciated seein as i only have 2 more hours till i'd actually wake up for school (had to write 2 other essays), so yeah thanks. heres a link to the passage http://web.cwoc.ufl.edu/owl/TutorialSessions/1120602bm.html It starts with " When i saw England for the first time, i was a chlid in school sitting at a desk".... & ends with "that i was unable to draw a map of England correctly. "

I am writing a final paper for a History of Caribbean class, and I kind of stuck on where to start. I basically have an idea of what I want to write on, but would just like some other opinions on the book, and what you think she was trying to get across.

i need to proof read it any suggestions and this has to be convey an audience,place or perosn and we got this idea froma essay of JAMAICA KINCAID and so i tried to do it like hers these are her first sentences of her essay "Girl," "wash the white clothes on monday and put them on the stone heap; wash the color clothes on tuesday and put them on the clothsline to dry;dont walk barehead.....(and keeps goingin that style with no points) Check Cashing Cashier Be respectful with clients and coworkers. Promote the company’s name. Be exclusive, remember that you are not the only one doing this job and if people do not like the service, they would prefer another place. Avoid showing you are inexpert; they might notice it and won’t want you to serve them. Be careful on whom you trust, you must not allow strangers to enter in your working area. Some people might want to trick you for the lack of preparation that you might show. Someone might want to cheat you by giving you fake money or checks. Once you receive an amount for a payment count the money, and do it three times if you have to. Dealing with money is a serious thing. Always give customers their change back, even pennies. Be an employee of trust, never steal or keep anything, remember if this happens to you, it will harm your reputation for the rest of your life. Also, do not mix your personal problems with your job. Never show them an upset face, instead, smile all the time. Always show your clients that you care not only about their collaboration but also about their health and life, and so this is how you gain tips and charisma, an option would be to ask them how they feel during the past weekend. The purpose is to make them feel comfortable, like in their house. You don’t want to let them leave worse than when they enter. Also always keep this in mind; do your best, pay 110% attention to your clients. Business is about Professionalism. You have to show everyone; your coworkers, boss and clients that you have that position for a reason; you are professional and prepared.

Even in the best industry, if it’s dirty, people will consider it unprofessional setting; you must remember; first impression is valuable. High-quality presentation grabs clients’ attention. If you eat always toss your remains in the garbage. You must clean the area where you eat, keep that in mind. As a cashier, you have to greet every single customer first. If they come complaining about your service, you must listen carefully to them, and resolve their problems with hands of “silk”. Customers are always right, never fall in discussions with them.
