The Communist Manifesto by Martin Rowson

Reviewers have given Rowson’s work the thumbs up, and some potential readers have taken to social media enthusiastically declaring this is the first time they’ve actually wanted to read The Communist Manifesto. It’s also a thought-provoking guide to the most influential work of political theory ever published, offering, just as publisher SelfMadeHero says, “an incisive introduction to the ideas of Communism and a lucid explanation of its aims.” It is no surprise, perhaps, that The Communist Manifesto (as it was later renamed) is the second bestselling book of all time, surpassed only by The Bible – and Rowson delivers a beautifully macabre take on the book.įor this interpretation of Marx and Engels work, Martin Rowson employs his trademark draughtsmanship and with a lively graphic novel adaptation, offering a timely reminder of the politics of hope. Much of what Marx and Engels proposed continues to be at the heart of political debate in the 21st century.
