PositiveLos Angeles Review of BooksCaptures the restless energy that makes Frantz Fanon such a compelling figure ... Given Fanon’s continuing influence, from the seminar room to social media to the streets, few would object to another effort to tell the story of his extraordinary life. Adam Shatz is well positioned to do so ... The book’s many supporting characters are skillfully evoked.
Adam Shatz
PositiveLos Angeles Review of BooksAn impressive accomplishment ... The range is impressive (if gendered) and has the virtue of putting Fanon into conversation with a variety of perspectives, but Fanon sometimes gets lost in the crowd ... Skillful as these chapters are in presenting Fanon’s shifting contexts, the man himself remains elusive.
