Bitch Goddess Revolution - John H. Messing

The upcoming 50th anniversary of the May 1968 Paris worker-student revolution has renewed interest in that time period. The revolt sought to transform the world into a pure Marxist image and it nearly toppled the government.

This book tells the tale from the vantage point of an outsider allowed in.

It recreates the events as they unfolded, the character of people involved, and the spirit of the times.

A narrative of Marxism's ability to inspire idealists to action, felt up close and personal, once upon a time.
