My Shit Life So Far by Frankie Boyle
Ever since being brought up by The Beatles, Frankie Boyle has been a tremendous liar. Join him on his adventures …
Where to start. First of all, misleading title as it is more an introduction to Marxist-Leninism. The author makes no mention of the utopian thinkers before Marx, who himself is introduced in only a couple of lines before we move over to Lenin where the supposed Grand History of Communism starts. The whole book felt biased and incoherent, trying to make a point by moving from country to country quickly with each paragraph just to point out the authors biased opinion on 'communism'. All together a disappointing attempt to earn money off of a stigmatized ideology.
