Title: From Fragmented Self to Self-Making: Colonial Memory and Identity Awareness in Anglophone-Caribbean Women’s Fictionalized Autobiographies

Abstract: The narrative form of fictionalized autobiography empowers Anglophone-Caribbean women writers to assert themselves as speaking subjects, telling their lived experiences and colonial memories while articulating their discursive voices. This study examines representative fictional autobiographies by Anglophone-Caribbean women during colonial and postcolonial periods to uncover their colonial memories, explore their living conditions and psychological states, and illuminate the evolution of their identity.

Keywords: Anglophone-Caribbean women, fictionalized autobiography, colonial memory, identity awareness
