The Devil and Karl Marx by Paul Kengor
Practically everyone knows (or at least should know) of the immense evil produced by communist ideology since Karl Marx penned his Communist Manifesto two centuries ago. Far too many people, however, separate Marx the man from the evils wrought by Marxism. That is a grave mistake. Not only are the results of Marxism very much the result of Marx's ideas and his very pen, but Marx himself penned some downright devilish things. Well before Karl Marx was writing about the hell of communism, he was writing about hell. Thus Heaven I've forfeited, I know it full well, wrote Marx in a poem in 1837, a decade before his Manifesto. My soul, once true to God, is chosen for Hell. That certainly seemed to be the perverse destiny for Marx's ideology, which consigned to death over 100 million souls in the 20th century alone. No other ideology in all of history led to the deaths of so many innocents. At long last, here, in this book by Professor Paul Kengor, is a close, careful look at the literal diabolical side of Karl Marx. It is a tragic portrait of a man and an ideology, a chilling retrospective on an evil that should have never been let out of its pit.
