I like to read paper books and then never mention on any computer that I read them, so there's zero digital footprint.
This one is good to read first thing in the morning with the first cup of coffee imo. It’s a lot easier to read if you do that.
I read this a few years ago and honestly only understood half of what was said, how are you finding it, Mr President?
Not done yet ofc, but so far it seems like a thought pattern similar to Mark Fisher's critique of culture. Unlike Fisher the anarchist it's actually thoroughly analysed and historically explained (even if just in the abstract), as is to be expected from a Marxist.
Looking forward to his critique of one-dimensional thought in the Soviet Union, it'll force him to explain differences via concrete class analysis.
In little bits a collection of Mao's writings, Blackshirts and reds and slowly going through a lot of Lovecraft novels in the huge necronomicon compendium.
The Antinomies of Antonio Gramsci rn. Also finally getting around to the latest Ken MacLeod novel. It's a bit lib in places compared to his early work but still fun.
I randomly read The Stone Canal many years ago because I liked the cover and I was like, why is everyone in this novel constantly arguing about anarchism?
How do you like them so far? I enjoyed most of the show but lost interest in it eventually.
Just finished the second book and they are quite good, better than the show imo. I watched the entire show and it was a bit of a slog sometimes, but the books go pretty smoothly for me
Q by Luther Blissett. Has nothing to do with QAnon and is great. It’s nice to finally find a fucking socialist historical fiction novel.
About 700 pages I think but the language is very accessible and I don’t really want it to end.
I am reading a book about automation from a nytimes reporter that's hilarious. And I am gotta get back to Savage Detectives.
State and Revolution (again). I'm also in the middle of The Ballot, the Streets, or Both? which is a deeper analysis of Lenin's position on electoralism in the revolution.
