Are you starting out as an ML? I could recommend some other elementary works, if you want.
I've been in the leftist camp for the last few years now, but just recently self identifying as an ML, but probably agreeing with the general idea without realising it.
My mother who grew up in Soviet Crimea just recently gifted me a copy of the Manifesto, so I'll be reading that soon. I'd really appreciate a list of some recommended works. Also if you have any suggestions for some books in the perspective of a historical account like The Jakarta Method, that really resonated with me.
Thank you!
Your Mother was a Soviet citizen?

I hand-picked these from a lot of choices.
If you can read through all of these, you won't be a "baby" leftist anymore.
I really appreciate the effort, comrade 🫡
I'll get these on my list for sure.
Very eager and excited to further my ~~indoctrination~~ education!
You can use marxists.org to read 'em as well.
