Reviews
"[Marshall Berman] represents what is best in Marxist tradition, which still has a chance of surviving the century of its catastrophic victories."-Christopher Hitchens " Adventures in Marxism is a fine collection, a lovely addition to anybody's bookshelf. Marshall Berman is one of our liveliest and most generous interpreters of Marx. Vagabond and eclectic, to be sure, but always honest and brimming with ideas and romance. He can help us learn to create ourselves while we try to change the world."- The Nation "I'd put Berman's slim, thoughtful book of essays into an enquiring hand to feel that Marx the thinker's future was assured."- London Review of Books

Synopsis
I feel like I.m one of those people that you talk about whose lives have been adventures in Marxism. I.m fifty years old, and since I spent my life as a construction worker raising a family, I.m at this stage still in college . Your book was inspiring to me because it reminded me why I made the sacrifices I did to get an education . the sheer joy of learning about ideas and the hope that education can make some kind of difference. He great thing about your approach to Marx is that you show that theory and the world of ideas can be exciting and intellectually rich, but also relevant to all workers, blue collar or otherwise. .Personal letter to the Author from Scott Smith, construction worker and student (Pittsburgh), ·This comprehensive volume of images honors Douglas Kirkland, the talented photographer who has been such an integral leading force in contemporary culture and photography·Will appeal to Kirkland fans craving a comprehensive collection of all his iconic photographs, from Princess Diana and Prince Charles' wedding day kiss to Marilyn Monroe swathed in silk bed linenDouglas Kirkland has amassed an impressive body of work throughout his 50-year photography career, his images running the gamut from stars and filmmakers, to classics and collectables, to love and nudes. Here, the photographer presents a collection of his images accompanied by a story of his career's development told from his perspective. Kirkland worked for such publications as Look Magazine and Life Magazine, but his career took off with his legendary 1961 Marilyn Monroe shoot for Look's 25th anniversary issue, the photographs from which are still recreated by stars today. Featuring an insightful foreword by acclaimed director Baz Luhrmann and his award-winning wife, Catherine Martin, this volume reveals both Kirkland and his prolific work., I feel like I'm one of those people that you talk about whose lives have been adventures in Marxism.
