Woman, Native, Other... What?February 19, 2008 N. Perryman 1 out of 10 found this review helpful
This "book" is quite possibly the most nonsensical, self-indulgent collection of phrases I've ever encountered. If I weren't assigned this in class, and perhaps despite that fact, I would have thought it was a publisher's joke. And not the funny kind, the "see what kind of drivel we can put out when we panderingly label it 'academic' and 'post-modern' kind." This book made me lose faith in publishing, academia, anthropology, and film studies, so I guess it succeeded in something.

No need for superlatives here- Minh-Ha's work speaks for itself. Beautifully written in her unique style, this particular text will change the way you think about history, memory, women's work, postcolonialism and diaspora. Does not read like a 'theory' book but is absolutely foundational.
