Grace is the narrator of "Caroline's Wedding." She was born in Haiti but raised for many years in America after her father arranged a fake wedding in order to get permission to stay in America, eventually bringing along his family. As someone born in Haiti but raised in America, Grace represents a kind of bridge between her very Haitian mother, Ma, and her younger sister, American-born Caroline. During the somewhat tumultuous time around Caroline's wedding, Grace acts as a kind of mediator between Caroline and Ma, who is objecting to Caroline's choice of husband and the lack of ceremony associated with the wedding.
