Revolution! Writings from Russia, 1917
Edited by Pete Ayrton
(Harbour Books, £15)
THIS lively collection joins the range of publications marking the centenary of the October Revolution, a number of which have already been reviewed in the Morning Star, and readers will be well aware of the debates that continue to surround this most crucial event of the 20th century promising a new world and new ways of living.
The originality of this particular publication lies in its selection of writings, representing the views and reflections of those who were involved during the events of 1917 and subsequent years.

MARJORIE MAYO recommends an accessible and unsettling novel that uses a true incident of death in the Channel to raise questions of wider moral responsibility

These are vivid accounts of people’s experiences of far-right violence along with documentation of popular resistance, says MARJORIE MAYO
