Doctor, militant, political essayist, ambassador, teacher,
journalist, pan-Africanist: Frantz Fanon represented a new model of
engaged intellectual who sought to decolonize mid-twentieth-century
thought, society and culture and move beyond the ideology of race.
Born Black in colonial Martinique, he fought for France during the
Second World War but later renounced his native land and aspired to
be Algerian during the Algerian War of Independence. Emphasizing
Fanon’s gift for self-invention and performance, Frantz Fanon
charts the key turning points in his short, extraordinary life and
explores how his pioneering work in psychiatry influenced his
revolutionary philosophy. It is essential reading for those who
wish to know more about this unique, visionary figure.
