hi i’m looking for books about colonialism/postcolonialism—fiction or nonfiction, doesn’t matter, and i’m open to focus on any specific region. i also don't mind if they’re more or solely about the 'objective' historical aspect instead of theory itself.
i’ve only read works like orientalism and the wretched of the earth this week, and while i managed with most of the jargon and references, i’d still prefer something a bit more accessible (idk if this is the correct term here) or not as dependent on prior knowledge of what i would consider obscure works. i get that it’s written for an academic audience, and i’m a junior in hs, so maybe not super suitable, BUT regardless i am seeking enlightenment (take this as bad colonial irony).
planning to read gramsci, césaire, foucault, and the like after midterms since they’ve been mentioned in my sociology class so i have a bit of a clue, but i’m kinda lost on where to go after that ahah. basically, if anyone has any recs, i’d love to hear them!!i know i complained a bit about the endless references, but i really don't mind. i’ll figure it out, i just want to know more. anyways, hope someone replies or it shall be a little awk
