star eater posted:i need far left books! where to after these? It's not exclusively left wing but I recommend Demanding The Impossible by Peter Marshall as a really broad intro to the history of anarchist thought and action. Libcom almost certainly has it in a pdf. Social Reform or Revolution? By Luxemburg is a good piece on why social democracy won't achieve the goals we as socialists are aiming for.

Wraith of J.O.I. posted:anyone got a good rec on a mao bio or history of the chinese rev? looking to read up on that after i finish fidel’s autobio and deutscher’s trotsky vol 1 (maybe i should finish the rest of trot though, great summation of the man and the era/history so far) I can recommend that you absolutely shouldn't read Mao: The Unknown Story by Jung Chang, a book so historically iffy that there was almost a cottage industry of articles challenging it. If for some reason you do read it, and honestly it's not even worth stealing, Was Mao Really a Monster: The Academic Response to Chang and Halliday's "Mao: The Unknown Story" is an essential follow up, a collection of 14 scholarly articles, IIRC 12 of them are calling the book garbage.
