Our take
AI-draftedShatz's real innovation is refusing to separate Fanon the psychiatrist from Fanon the revolutionary theorist — most prior accounts treat the clinical work in Blida as a biographical detour before the real story of Algeria and Black Skin, White Masks begins. Reviewers praised the book precisely for putting that clinical practice at the center.
In the press
“A nimble and engrossing new book.”
