Acerca de esta escucha

In 1848, The Communist Manifesto was published by two émigrés from Germany. Marx and Engels' apocalyptic vision of an insatiable system that penetrates every corner of the world reduces every relationship to that of profit, and burst asunder the old forms of production and of politics. It is still a recognisable picture of our world—the vampiric energy of the system being once again highly contentious.

The Manifesto is a text that shows no sign of fading into antiquarian obscurity. Its ideas animate in different ways the work of writers like Yanis Varoufakis, Adam Tooze, Naomi Klein and the journalist Owen Jones.

China Mieville is not a writer who has been hemmed in by conventional notions of expertise or genre, and this is a strikingly imaginative take on Marx and what his most haunting book has to say to us today.

Poignant and promising!!

An excellent analysis and objective discussion about the manifesto and why it is relevant today more than ever. Enjoyed the author’s narration as well. Highly recommend!

Enjoyed the book overall

Found some of the writing a little pretentious and over the top. But overall good read!

An excellent exegesis of the Manifesto

China Miéville does us all a great service with this carefully written, well-researched examination of the Manifesto of the Communist Party in its form, aims, historical context, and iterative versions. Miéville explores major criticisms of the text—both of good and bad faith—and in so doing reminds us all how alive and relevant that haunting specter remains today. A masterwork.

Explains and contextualizes the communist manifesto for our age

I've read the communist manifesto before but found it hard to turn its abstract observations into concrete ideas that apply to the 21st century. If you feel similarly, this is the book for you. It gives context to the movement, the authors, and the text itself, it discusses major criticisms, warranted and less so, and when in the final appendix the author reads the whole of the manifesto, it was to me like seeing it with new eyes.

Really great primer to the Communist Manifesto

I'm a huge China Miéville fan, so I figured I'd pick this one up. I've read the CM before, even with a different primer, but he does it so much more justice. This is a modern contextualization that so many would benefit reading.

A great follow up to October

China Mieville is such an excellent fiction writer. He brings that excellence and insight to his works on communism. Thank you for bringing such insight into what has been such an important work.
