My new list of books I'll be reading soon-
The End- Lemony Snicket
Letter to a Christian Nation- Sam Harris
I will also be re-reading The Walter Mosley book, too.
Books and thoughts on and around them. And some other things. By a Marxist-Leninist-Troskyist Mom.
T is for Trotsky
This started as, and remains primarily, a place to review books and other media from a Trotskyist-Leninist-Marxist perspective. It has become as well a place to review experiences, personal and of the world at large, from that same perspective.
Art and culture are inextricably bound together.
There is a lot of question about what a socialist is. There are a lot of people and groups describing themselves as socialist. I will tell you this:
Here you will find an Internationalist view, as opposed (and in opposition) to a nationalist view. The Working Class is the only International Class. I am a member of the Working Class. You probably are, too.
L is for Lenin
- Clare is Reading!
- In the middle of many books, many magazines, and many situations.

TRy Mosley's 47, a young adult novel that is from the point of view of a slave living the most horrific existence on a Southern plantation. The sf elements are nicely done, but strained at times. Mosley has a deeply felt, bitter understanding of how American slavery worked.
It's good to see another Trotskyist with a blog.
Thanks- I have that book but have not read it yet. Mosley is perhaps my favourite living American writer. I know politically he is still sort of seeking, but I think (hope) he is going to end up a socialist, and I think that once he weeds through identity issues, he will find his home in Trotskyism. Well, I think/hope, anyway.
His mind is so wonderfully sharp, and amazing linguistic ability is something which is pretty much unmatched at present. He can paint pictures with his words in whatever genre, fiction or non-. Yes, I am a fan.
