'The Wretched of the Earth' is a book on the post-colonial theory by one of the following authors :

  • A.Barbara Harlowe
  • B.Henry Louis Lates
  • C.Helen Tiffin
  • D.Frantz Fanon

Answer: D

The Wretched of the Earth is by Frantz Fanon.

Fanon, the psychiatrist and revolutionary from Martinique who joined the Algerian struggle, published Les Damnes de la Terre in 1961, with a preface by Jean-Paul Sartre. It analyses the violence of colonialism and decolonisation and the pitfalls of national consciousness, and is a founding text of postcolonial theory.

Barbara Harlow, Henry Louis Gates and Helen Tiffin (co-editor of The Empire Writes Back) are later critics in the field, their names printed with variations in the options; none wrote this book.
