14. Mars trilogy by Kim Stanley Robinson... one of the best naturalistic books ever written. It depicts the migration & terrsformation of Mars with amazing poetry as well as its inevitable social, economic & political troubles & revolution
13. Libertarian Communism by Ernesto Screpanti... a great interpretation of Marx & Engels that bring out their emancipatory selves. Still to ignorant of other schools of socialism but tbh I am used to that from Marxists by now
12. Rabelais & his world by Mikhail Bahktin... a great book on the literary development of the renaissance & especially of grotesque realism & it brought us the term & concept carnivalesque.
11. Finder, Carla Speed McNeil... A science fiction comic taking place nowhere in a far future with indigenous communities mixed with Urban cultures in a massively creative & interesting setting & great stories
10. Post-Scarcity Anarchism, Murray Bookchin... A fantastic book about anarchism, ecology & desire. It shows how ecology needs to be a constructive part of anarchism as well contains essays on organisation, critique of marxism & so on
9. Simians, Cyborgs & women, Donna Haraway...
One of the best books about feminism, dualisms, anti-essentialism & philosophical works completely. Haraway criticises feminist theories for their assumed essentialism & criticises modern society for its misogynistic structures as well
8. All about Love, bell Hooks... A book about love & how love works in our current hierarchical society as a tool of domination, gender stereotypes, aggression & control but also how love is liberating.
