Average Rating: 
Rating: - The Jamaica Kincaid segment
I do not know Jamaica Kincaid's work. I took interest in the interview because I wanted to hear what she had to say about her conversion to Judaism. But Charlie Rose did not ask this question. Instead they spoke about her Caribbean background, her childhood, the process of her literary discovery in New York, her connection with William Shawn editor of the 'New Yorker' who was her father- in- law. They also speak about the world of oppression she came out of. Kincaid is an extremely pleasant person with a wonderfully clear and musical speaking voice. I did not get any great in- depth revelations about humanity from the interview- but it was pleasant and painless.
