Hello everynyan, we're finally going to start reading This Soviet World.

Week 1 we are reading "On Interpreting a World" and Chapter 1: "The plan for Remaking the World."

EPUB, and link to a PDF, of the book can be found on Comrade's Library. If you find problems with the EPUB tell me and I will fix it. Dessalines has made an audio book.
