]]> Comment on Growing up in Jamaica by Joanne Archer http://s194058772.websitehome.co.uk/2007/11/11/growing-up-in-jamaica/#comment-3 Joanne Archer Fri, 08 Jun 2007 22:09:11 +0000 http://s194058772.websitehome.co.uk/2007/11/11/growing-up-in-jamaica/#comment-3 The excerpt from the novel titled 'Off the Edge' was truly an experience of life in Jamaica. I have travelled to Jamaica on many occasions, as the story unfolds the experience became my own even if I had never travelled. I felt like a passenger on the bus looking at Ivan and Granny Ta Mildred walking towards the bus. The laughter that echoed as Granny manoeuvred with her walking stick and struggled to enter onto the bus is real. The setting was very descriptive but not saturated. The tone and the mood captured my attention straightaway from the start of the excerpt to the end. The expression of words was stimulating and consistent. I am inspired to read the complete novel.
