Listening to #WideSargassoSea by #JeanRhys.

So well done.

And I'm cooked after 10 munutes.
So v e r y despair inducing for me.

(Written 1966 as a prequel to #JaneAyre - the back story of the mad woman in the attic. Small liberties taken with actual historical chronology.)

Classified as #PostColonialLiterature.
And I see just about every human on the planet is living a post-colonial life.

Yet the Xia dynasty, the Greeks, Romans, etc have had postcolonialism around for millenia.
