A review by thebookishbabbler
The Communist Manifesto and Other Writings by Karl Marx, Martin Puchner, Friedrich Engels
4.0
actual rating 4.75
So I never expected to really enjoy reading the communist manifesto but lets be real, I am way too much of a political nerd to not love something that is nothing but political expounding. This was so well written, so brilliantly cultivated, and so intriguing for me. I obviously don't agree with all of the views and theories presented in this but that isn't going to stop me from thoroughly enjoying this read. It has been a long time since a non-fiction has made me so interested to do my own research on the topic.
The only reason this isn't five stars is because I wanted more expounding. I wanted this to be longer and I wanted to read more of Marx and Engles ideas. I have no clue why I enjoyed this so much but I really think this is a must read for anyone remotely interested in WWI-WWII era politics and just politics and society in general. Really well written and really intriguing.
