Hello comrades, after the success of our Will to Change book club, I'd like to host another reading group here on /c/menby. hooks' work on anti-patriarchal masculinity was hugely insightful for many of us and I'd like to delve further into gender and feminist theory.

The main book I was looking at was Caliban and the Witch: Women, the Body and Primitive Accumulation by Silvia Federici, however other users pointed out that the book suffers from very poor historiography that significantly weakens the arguments she makes, despite having great ideas. If you've read Caliban and still believe it would be an great read, please let me know below.

Please leave any other suggestions for our next book in the comments.

And if you'd like to be added to the ping list for this, let me know.

I look forward to learning about what everyone else has or would like to read!

    Please add/keep me on the ping list! I don't have a book suggestion, unfortunately, but I am interested in reading in the book club on this.
