Black Skin, White Masks by Frantz Fanon

A devastating account of the feelings of inadequacy experienced by previously colonised people in a white world.
One feels a brilliant, vivid and hurt mind walking the thin line that separates effective outrage from despair-- New York Times
A strange, haunting melange of existential analysis, revolutionary manifesto, metaphysics, prose, poetry and literary criticism. -- Newsweek
Fanon's analysis of crippled colonial mentalities may be even more salient now than it was then. -- New Statesman
Frantz Fanon is the esteemed author of two classics of colonial writing. His theorising of the relationship between racism, colonialism and mental illness has made him an inspiration to people fighting liberation struggles, from Palestine to Harlem. He is the author of the classic books Black Skin, White Masks (Pluto, 2017) and The Wretched of the Earth (Penguin, 2001). His writing has also been collected into The Fanon Reader (Pluto, 2006).
