Just to add to the bandwagon, Losurdo is perhaps the most essential Marxist author of the 21st century thus far. His works are clarifying, whether it be on Stalin (the one here), Liberalism, China, or "Western" Marxism in general. A superb writer, cannot go wrong!
Losurdo is peak - that's the book that actually got me into reading more about Stalin. Malcolm X is probably very good too, but I don't really know about John Reed.
Gonna echo 51dz31 and say Losurdo is the move. Everyone who calls themself a "leftist" needs to read his works.
That cover art for Ten days... is incredible. Who is the artist? I couldn't find the original on google
I think I know what to put on my wishlist for my birthday
Happy educationally radical reading comrade!
I was thinking this morning that I should read Ten Days That Shook The World. Because I'd like to know how the world could be shook. What an enticing title.
Autobiography of Malcolm X is a book that I read it a long time ago but it is always coming to mind.
