This paper aims to investigate the migrant experience in Levy's "Back to My Own Country: An Essay" and her short stories "The Diary" and "That Polite Way That English People Have". Levy's stories of migration blend fact with ction, where autobiography, history, social commentary and ction commingle. The stories manifest certain rewarding as well as negative aspects of migration in that they depict the migrant's desire to attain a fairy-tale world as well as the ironies of the migrant experience. In her narratives, Levy writes not only about her personal story as a second-generation migrant, her Jamaican as well as black-British heritage, her identity conict, racial awareness and racism, and gender bias, but she also gives information and her opinions on slavery, colonialism, the Caribbean migrants of the Windrush generation and the intermingled history of Britain and the Caribbean. Levy's works can also be regarded as a rewriting of history as she aims to uncover the lost history shared by the Caribbean and Britain, and remedy the amnesia. Levy's use of the motif of "reverse migration" in her narratives helps her achieve this aim, as she moves the story of the Caribbean British from the margin to the centre, as a compensation for the past.

How is the underlined pronoun in the sentence used?
Citrus2011 [14]
The word "them" in the sentence is used as the indirect object. The correct answer would be option B. It is used as the indirect object because it is being affected by the verb used in the sentence. The subject or the doer of the action is "sandy", the verb is "showed" and the direct object is "her coin collection" making "them" as the indirect object.
