Postcolonial Astrology: Reading the Planets Through Capital, Power, and Labor by Alice Sparkly Kat

3.0

Had to stop reading about a third of the way through; clearly well researched and certainly on an important topic, but I did not find it very engaging and I found it frustrating that the author (in my opinion, this could be personal) seemed to avoid the question of, “now what?” I was looking for “This is a problematic thing. Here’s what to do or how to think about it instead,” but there was very little of that. And for the record, I did skim the rest of the chapters and the conclusion to see if there was any of that, but I found very little. Good book I’m sure, just a bit too dense and did not answer the questions I was looking for.
