I want to remind you that we’ve moved. The Inside Zero Books podcast from the Zero Books blog to Patreon. This will make it easier to get the member’s only podcast on podcatchers. It also means that we’ll be repeating the first year of Inside Zero Books daily on our Patreon account so if you missed them the first time, or if you just want to hear the old episodes again, they’ll be available.

And if you’re a former member who emailed to take me up on the Zero Books parting gift of a random paperback that should be on its way to you within the next week.

I also want to urge you to pick up Anselm Jappe’s The Writing on the Wall, and you might also get ahold of Philip Cunliffe’s Lenin Lives, and, of course, if you haven’t read it already get yourself a copy of Angela Nagle’s Kill All Normies. It’s guaranteed to transform any leftist get together into a struggle session.
