Started reading Fanon's 'Wretched of the Earth'. So far just reading the preface by Jean Paul Sartre which is already very good, I imagine this was ground breaking and very exciting when it was released, during the time of great optimism in the "third world", the Bandung conference etc. For fiction I'm reading The Three Body Problem by Liu Cixin. I really struggle with fiction generally. I usually find it very hard to pursue fiction for some reason.

Read A Song of Ice and Fire.
