A big fan of Fanon and Sartre - I stumbled on this reader and wanted to read more on people's interpretations of Fanon. An insider to the African struggle and cultures, I was very disappointed by the book. Although I read several, successfully written, English interpretations of Fanon, I was seriously struck by the majority of the authors in this reader (except a few who unfortunately should have published elsewhere). The majority tried too hard to interpret theory with theory, without offering any depth at all - used too many quotations to support their argument, and a few were in direct opposition of what they were trying to put forward in the first place! I do not doubt the authors best intentions, but we all know too well that good intentions alone do not make for a good argument.In sum, I would not recommend this book.
