The Meaning of it All

“Books are keys to Wisdom’s treasure.”
—anonymous

“All writing is garbage.”
—Antonin Artaud

The crucial significance of this catalogue lies in its presentation of the spirit of the Revolution in its totality. Opposing the flat, one-dimensional, Cartesian and putrescent world of bourgeois reality, as well as the equally useless puritanical facade of the sarcomatous Traditional Left, the dreams of the revolutionary movement find expression here in both their manifest and latent content, aiming at the continual expansion of consciousness and leading to the collectively and individually lyrical subversion of all values imposed by a repressive society.

This catalogue is, to our knowledge, the largest and most comprehensive catalogue of specifically radical books ever published, containing somewhere near 600 titles. Its agitational and educational usefulness is clearly evident by that fact alone. We have listed all or many publications of every anarchists socialist, labor or radical publisher (the IWW, Freedom Press, Solidarity, Pioneer, Charles H. Kerr Cooperative, International, Peace News, New York Labor News, Modern Publishers, Libertarian League, Monthly Review Press, Syndicalist Workers Federation, J.-J. Pauvert, News & Letters, Surrealist Editions, Facing Reality, Plaid Cymru, the School of Living, Socialist Party, and several others)—almost all of which are unobtainable in commercial bookstores—as well as many works published by smaller and lesser-known commercial publishers—also rarely carried in other bookstores—and the most relevant books published by university and large commercial publishers.

The emphasis throughout has been on libertarian revolutionary works, though many books and pamphlets not exactly meeting this requirement have been included if in our opinion they were especially relevant and/or revolutionary by implication. In the SOCIALIST and ANARCHIST sections the attempt was made to list all the “classics” of the past which are in print as well as an even greater number of contemporary works, representing practically every important tendency in the revolutionary movement today. Generally excluded were social-democratic, reformist, Stalinist, elitist, Maoist and other counter-revolutionary tendencies which sometimes try to pass themselves off as revolutionary. The SURREALIST section lists nearly every surrealist work currently available in English, many of the most important pre-surrealist works, nearly every critical study and a few works in French which are almost completely unavailable in the U.S. except from us. Certain sections (like ANTHROPOLOGY and PSYCHOANALYSIS) are very abbreviated; we feel the books listed therein are of particular importance to younger revolutionaries seeking new approaches to the problems confronting us, and thus deserved to be listed. These sections will be expanded in our revised catalogue. Certain books are referred from one section to a more appropriate one; if you fail to find it in the section referred to, check the ADDENDA on p. 54. The LABOR HISTORY section, by the way, includes all sub-sections from p. 33 to 41.

This catalogue, and the Solidarity Bookshop, and our journal The Rebel Worker are some of the agitational activities of members of the Chicago Branch of the I.W.W. The Rebel Worker has quadrupled its circulation (now about 1,000) in only four issues, and we are confident that as more people discover it we can increase its circulation fantastically. We have recently begun a pamphlet series (see p. 4). Our immediate aim is to bring revolutionary thought to the greatest possible number of people. But we are determined, as soon as possible, to overthrow the ignoble conditions now prevailing, to make a revolution, to rebuild the world from scratch. Applications for membership are available on request.

Voline, on the editorial board of the anarcho-syndicalist daily “Golos Truda” of Petrograd (October, 1917) defends the libertarian ideals of the October revolution against their destruction by the new Bolshevik State. “According to the libertarian thesis, it is the laboring masses themselves, who, by means of various class organizations, factory committees, industrial and agricultural unions, co-operatives, et cetera, federated and centralized on a basis of real needs, should apply themselves everywhere to solving the problems of waging the Revolution.”

These movements provide important material for a clearer understanding both of the original objectives of the Russian Revolution as well as of the problems with which all revolutions with far-reaching social objectives have to contend.

Addenda

One of the best accounts of the Hungarian Revolution was written by the British C.P. journalist Peter Fryer, who, while in Budapest, filed news articles with the Daily Worker in London only to discover later that they never appeared because of their truthfulness. Fryer left the C.P. immediately afterward and wrote a book on the Revolution that he had privately printed. Long out of print now, much of what Fryer wrote at that time is incorporated into Anderson’s work, to which is added an historical perspective and many more facts unknown to Fryer. Strongly recommended.
