The Black Reading

the-black-book-of-communismThis is what I plan to read after I finish Eric Weiner’s “The Geography of Bliss” - a book about his own pursuit of finding the happiest places/people on earth…

It is 850 pages long, and as in Jeffrey Tucker’s shared review of the book,

” The historians writing in this 850-page book cover Lenin’s murders, Stalin’s Gulag, Mao’s Great Leap Forward and Cultural Revolution, Pol Pot’s Khmer Rouge, and every other case of shocking crime and horror. [...]

They establish for all time that the machinery of communism is fueled by crimes, terror, and repression, and ends predictably in massacre.”

    Why wait? Start writing on it yourself…

    I just think you don’t know what are you talking about.
