About this book

In this blistering 80-page essay, Kincaid addresses the tourist directly, exposing how Antigua's beauty masks its colonial wounds. Originally published in 1988, its critique of power, race, and cultural erasure remains urgently relevant. This edition includes new commentary by postcolonial scholars. ## Related reading If this resonates, you might also reach for [The Argonauts](/products/the-argonauts/), [The Truth About the Harry Quebert Affair](/products/the-truth-about-the-harry-quebert-affair/), or [The Book of Disquiet](/products/the-book-of-disquiet/).
