Reading Experience
At 31,252 words across roughly 125 pages, this one runs about 2.6 hours of reading time. Long enough to dig into its subject properly, short enough that it does not lose you along the way. For history & civilization, this length tends to work well — room to develop ideas without padding.
About the Author
How Colonialism Works was written in 2016, when Atharva Inamdar was 19 and developing what would become The Vomit Method — marathon writing sessions of 20 hours a day, 15 days straight, to finish a book. The history & civilization work from this period reflects a writer pushing hard to find his voice. With 40 history titles, this genre reflects a genuine interest in how the past shapes the present — a theme that runs through much of the broader catalog.
