Could you please give me your opinion or analysis of the book A Small Place by Jamaica Kincaid.?

Question

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.

The overall feeling the Jamaica Kincaid relays to the reader in A Small Place is very negative. All through out the book she bashes at the way-of-life on her native island Antigua by the politicians and tourists. I think that the two major tones in A Small Place are cynical and livid.
