Hello comrades and friends! I’ve gotten back into reading and I’ve been buying books about fascism, because of the political climate. I’ve picked up a few books, like
It Can’t Happen Here by Sinclair Lewis Cradles of the Reich by Jen Coburn The Plot Against America by Philip Roth
I know they aren’t strictly anarchist, but they do talk about fascism/authoritarianism. Could you recommend me some books about anarchism as well as more books on fascism? I prefer fiction, but will read non-fiction as well.
Hmm. Maybe
- „The myth of a strong leader“ by Archie Brown
I really like this one. It reads pretty modern and might give some insight how the situation in the US might evolve:
- „Berlin Diary“ by William L. Shirer
That one is a classic:
- „How to spot a fascist“ by Umberto Eco.
Stefan Zweig talks about the rise of the nazis and the beginning of Second World War in his memoirs for a bit:
- „The world of yesterday“ by Stefan Zweig.
Umberto Eco is amazing! I’m currently reading two of his books. He’s very intelligent.
Yes, absolutely! What books of him are you reading?
