There are a ton of useful works, the Manifesto of the Communist Party is fun and Principles of Communism is a good FAQ too, but VPP and WLaC make up the best 1-2 punch of Marxism you can get. permalink fedilink source parent [–] Psychodelic@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago (1 child) The Communist Manifesto comes in graphic novel form, everyone! It's actually a pretty fantastic adaptation. I've read both and they're both short, easy reads. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 1 child comment replies: [–] NaoPb@eviltoast.org 2 points 2 years ago Ooh!
