  • My annual haul of discounted Verso books has come in. Not sure I’ve yet to crack any that came in last year lol.

    But these look so clean and crisp. I have to read them. Doodle in them, dog-ear them. take them to the park and open them up and nod conspicuously to let other people know that I agree. Or at least, most of them. One is book of poetry by Baudelaire, the cover of which looks very beautiful. another is a compilation of Marx, also beautiful. Probably unrealistic to read those cover to cover. But I should try the others.

    I’ll start with a republished book by Bhaskar, which, as far as i can tell, defends a sort of scientific realism as a means to ground a Marxist project. distasteful to my positivistic predilections, but the cover is also beautiful.

    i will report back.
