What are you reading?

Also, the book club will be starting again with the first vote next Sunday, do any of you have any themes or topics you'd want the book club to cover?

    Starting The Workers Republic by James Connolly today and have been reading The Motorcycle Diaries by Che Guevara the past few days which is a beautifully written book, interesting to see his transformation into a revolutionary as the book goes on :joker-che:

        page 60 currently, hasnt been overly political yet but certainly has mentions of solidarity with the proletariat

          OK, if I remember he hasn't gotten to Chile yet, correct me if i'm wrong. He gets more and more political when he reaches Chile, then Peru and the leper colony (i don't think this counts as spoilers - they are just locations). It's really a great book, made me miss my my home in Latin America. I highly recommend the movie as well!

            He is currently in Chile where I'm reading, he gets noticeably more political for sure, haven't got on to Peru yet though. I never actually heard much about the film adaptation, but I haven't watched it because I wanted to experience the words written by Che first, thanks for the reccomendation though I'll watch it once I'm finished the book
