In the short story, “Girl” by Jamaica Kincaid, you hear about the many words of wisdom, or advice that a mother is attempting to pass on to her daughter. The condescending tone of the story is portrayed by the use of semi colons, showing a steady stream of advice and preaching of the mother onto the daughter. The story follows an almost poetic or lyrical style of writing that flows from basic advice like how to sweep a corner to advice like how to handle a man bullying you or how to have an abortion. Although a lot of the advice given to the daughter may be useful in her life and in the culture they live in, it is delivered in a way that seems very callous, and is said with a stern tone, much like a dictator. The daughter in the story tries to speak up only twice throughout the entire thig, only to be completely unheard as the mother continues her chant. The only time the mother’s advice is repeating is when she refers to her daughter as a slut, or her inevitable “becoming of a slut”, which occurs four times throughout the work. The story is written with no real chronological timeline and does not have the traditional beginning, middle, and ending.

That is because Charlotte Doyle gets put on a ship that takes her on an expedition back to America, but--she is the only female onboard… Now a theme that I would have to choose thus far into the novel would have to be “Don’t judge a book by its cover”, this works figuratively and literally because the literal would come from the actual cover, you’d think that she would be conflicted on her voyage by weather, because of the waves crashing hard against the seahawk and figuratively because of the actual book. I mean she is on this voyage and she’s the only female aboard the ship, and it’s very rough because she is
