THE GREEN BOOK - Muammar Al Qathafi
ABOUT:
Muammar
Al Quadaffi's timeless "Green Book". A manifesto for a third way
advocating 'authority of the people' or the 'Jamahirya' , socialist -
nationalism, and third univeral theory. Though written obviously for
his own people of Africa, its ideas are obviously applicable to all.
The Iron Heel - Jack London
About:
Written
by the Socialist and Euro-Centric revolutionary Jack London. While his
other novels such as "White Fang" are talked about and turned into
movies made for tv, this revolutionary novel advocating social justice
and national freedom never made it to the popular novels to talk about
at the water trough at work, instead it has inspired many of us to seek
a new way beyond all of that.
MEN - ART - WAR
About:
Introduced
to us by a BLR reader who just happened to be the author and was kind enough to mail a copy to us
"Through clouded eyes we glimpse the cliffs that loom over yon distant shores.
The waves they break with giant’s strength and boom like oaken castle doors. Lightning threatens from above while frenzied sharks await below. Danger it is all about. In every element lurks a foe. Creation. Destruction. Birth and Death. The same. The same. The same. Fire melts the eternal ice, which transformed, douses the flame. Onward we sail, toward those cliffs, determined to reach the beckoning shore. And on landing make what our fathers made—glorious art and glorious war. Thus read the final lines of The Lay of Hadding, the anonymously penned late 19th century poem that later stirred a generation of young writers (including W.B. Yeats and Wyndham Lewis), and the inspiration for the stories presented in Men·Art·War. From the Egyptian deserts to the green fields of Gaul to the small towns of North Carolina; from 332 B.C.E. to eleven years after tomorrow; here are ten rousing tales of art and war, and the men who wage both. " Read the first absolute must read revolutionary tale entitled "The Random" for free by clicking on the book cover above and then purchase your own copy to read after you finish the first short story.
