New Books

The Freedom Shop is well and truly well-stocked at the moment. Within the last few weeks we've had boxes of books arriving from AKPress, PM Press and Kersplbdeb - along with more treasures from BWB...   We've got David Graeber, George Orwell, Noam Chomsky, Silvia Federici, Angela Davis, Murray Bookchin, the suddenly famous Andreas Malm, the classic alt-Tintin volume Breaking Free and even a new edition of Thomas More's Utopia. We've got utopian AND dystopian Sci-Fi from Ursula LeGuin, Octavia E Butler, Kim Stanley Robinson, Vandana Singh, Eileen Gunn and John Shirley. There's something for everybody, and we haven't even got around to opening two of the boxes.  

New Books from Kersplebedeb

A box of books from Kersplebedeb in Canada is out on the shelves!  Silvia Federici fans will be delighted to see Caliban and the Witch is back in stock, along with three of her other books. Fiction fans can pick up B Traven's classic, The Death Ship , Ytasha L. Womack's Afrofuturism and Michael Mohammed Knight's cheerfully daft Islamic punk fantasy, The Taqwacores .  And we've finally got copies of Thomas King's The Inconvenient Indian , a brilliant intro to North American colonial and anti-colonial history and Michelle Cruz Gonzales account of feminist punk band Spitboy (they played a legendary gig at Thistle Hall in Pōneke back in the dark ages).  Plus stuff on Makhno, 1968, Frantz Fanon, anarchism in the Philippines, Bookchin and more!
