Winner of the 2000 Independent Publisher Award for best visionary fiction in the U.S.; A unique play that brings Karl Marx to life to defend his ideas, set in contemporary Soho, New York; A witty and insightful introduction to Marx's life, his ideas, and the relevance of Marxism for today's world; Winner of the 2000 Independent Publisher Award for best visionary fiction in the US; Howard Zinn brings Karl Marx back to life to address a contemporary audience in Soho. Marx has agitated with the authorities of the afterlife for a chance to clear his name. Through a bureaucratic error, however, Marx is sent to Soho in New York, rather than his old stomping ground in London, to make his case. Marx in Soho is a brilliant introduction to Marx's life, his analysis for society, and his passion for radical change-and the relevance of Marx's ideas for today.
