The premise of this witty and insightful “play on history” is that
Karl Marx has agitated with the authorities of the afterlife for a
chance to clear his name. Through a bureaucratic error, though, Marx
is sent to Soho in New York, rather than his old stomping ground in
London, to make his case.
Zinn introduces us to Marx’s wife, Jenny, his children, the anarchist
Mikhail Bakunin, and a host of other characters.
Marx in Soho is a brilliant introduction to Marx’s life, his analysis
of society, and his passion for radical change. Zinn also shows how
relevant Marx’s ideas are for today's world.
Winner of the 2000 Independent Publisher Award for best visionary
fiction
