Abstract
This analysis of texts by Jamaica Kincaid and Olive Senior focuses on their representations of landscapes and their re-envisioning of the scarred lands historically cultivated by their African enslaved ancestors. Gardening through history is a process of feminine resistance, a genuine metaphor for plowing into one’s land and repossessing one’s body.
