Blackness Tied To Servitude [Dennis-Benn, Pg9]

In the image above, the novel opens with a narrator introducing the protagonist, Margot, and the hard labor and long hours she endured working at the hotel. The narrator alludes to Margot’s “additional” job, possibly implying that her salary isn’t enough to survive on. Additionally, the narrator suggests that the “Paradise” the employees, like Margot, create is inaccessible to them. Therefore, I include this excerpt alongside my annotations of Jamaica’s 1978 advertisement to serve as evidence for my claims about the Tourism Industry.
