Hey guys.

I've spent most of my life as a moderate lib, until about 6 months ago when I became full-on leftist. However, I know very little Marxist theory.

Assuming I know nothing, what books would recommend to some like me? Obviously Marx, but what else? And in what order? Would anyone be willing to curate a list of books that would give me the basics on Marxist theory and history from the perspective of Marxism? Any advice would be helpful.

Thanks!

    Bakunin and Kropotkin. Even if you want to go the ML route, you'll need to dunk on anarchists eventually, so you might as well peer over the fence to see what's up.

      The bread book is a pretty easy read too, compared to some of the other dense leftist material out there.
