In this episode of Guerrilla History, we have the opportunity to discuss a fabulous new book, Subjectivity and Decolonisation in the Post-Independence Novel and Film with its brilliant author Sarah Jilani. Through examinations of novels and film from Africa and South Asia, Frantz Fanon's materialist approach to self and representations of subjectivity and decolonization are discussed. Really an outstanding conversation, we really hope Sarah will join us again for future conversations! Another project Sarah is involved with is Revolutionary Papers, and we look forward to discussing this project in weeks to come. Sarah Jilani is a Lecturer in English at City, University of London, and a 2021 AHRC/BBC New Generation Thinker. She is the author of several articles on postcolonial literatures and film that have appeared in Textual Practice, Interventions, and Journal of Commonwealth Literature, amongst others, and a widely published culture journalist. Keep up to date with Sarah by checking out her website for more of her work, and follow her on twitter @sarahjilani.
