Sarah Lewis

Sarah Lewis Instagram – American Book Award. Counting the blessings of 2025. Another connected blessing: moving into Jamaica Kincaid’s former @harvard office when she retired (last slide). The first dinner I had with a Harvard colleague was with her. She told me that she would never speak to me again if I didn’t write the book the way we both knew I needed to. It was a threat that coming from her was an act of love. We are all in lineage. What an honor to walk into this office where I learned about the award and know that I am hers. So grateful to the ancestors to whom I dedicated the book, to all those friends like Jamaica, and so very many of you. Surrounded by such support and love. What a gift I treasure. | Posted on 23/Dec/2025 23:29:07
