Building a Marx Library
So i not just got the 3rd volume of Capital but also Grundrisse, and 3 biographies after a quick survey of what looked best, one was discounted, and one was just 10 bucks and another a full 16 or so. In the one click frenzy i went for Allen Ginsberg, but had run out of funds by then.
Building a Marx library will eventually enlarge to a whole thing including other guys like that, i do have some Mao, but then there's I.V. Lenin, and Stalin, theorists aplenty await .... even such people like Slavoj Zizek.
I've tried in the past to try to wrap my head around communism, the nicest expression i ever came across was from Oscar Wilde which gave it a benign Jesus freak spin.
There's no denying how it all has had a huge influence in the recent past, and that is chiefly why i am welcoming it into my personal curriculum.
