About this listen

First published in 1961, Frantz Fanon's The Wretched of the Earth offers a powerful exploration of race, colonialism, and the psychological impact of oppression. This seminal text has inspired generations of revolutionaries and activists, influencing movements from decolonization struggles in the Global South to Black Lives Matter. As a cornerstone of civil rights, anti-colonialism, and Black consciousness studies, Fanon's most celebrated work stands alongside such essential texts as Edward Said's Orientalism and The Autobiography of Malcolm X.

This audiobook is masterfully read by Aaron Goodson, and was produced and published by Echo Point Books & Media, an independent bookseller in Brattleboro, Vermont. Audio engineering by Mike Thal.

Powerful, Thought-provoking, and Masterfully Narrated

A profound and essential text brought to life with clarity and intensity, making the complex themes of colonialism, liberation, and resistance accessible without diminishing their depth. I liked the narrator’s measured pace and thoughtful tone, it didn’t distract me from Fanon’s passionate arguments, ensuring that key moments resonated deeply.
