Socialism: Utopian and Scientific by Friedrich Engels

5.0

By far the most palatable and exciting work on socialism I’ve read so far. Engels essentially spells out, with shocking succinctness relative to most Marxist writers, the ills of society in his time, with clear analysis of our current era of capitalism as well.
There still remains to be a really accessible socialist text out there, one that isn’t bogged down with an assumption of philosophical education, but this one is fairly close.
I recommend it to anyone wanting to begin reading Marx
