This book introduces audiences to a new Fanon, a more personal Fanon and one whose literary and psychiatric works, in particular, take centre stage. These writings provide new depth and complexity to our understanding of Fanon's entire oeuvre revealing more of his powerful thinking about identity, race and activism which remain remarkably prescient.

This powerful collection of articles, essays, and letters spans the period between Black Skin, White Masks and The Wretched of the Earth, Fanon's landmark manifestos on the psychology of the colonized and the means of empowerment necessary for their liberation.
