Few books have shaped the world like The Communist Manifesto. Written by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels, this revolutionary text has sparked labour movements, inspired political parties, and fueled uprisings across the globe. Banned in countless countries since its original publication, its message remains as urgent and controversial as ever.
Acclaimed Swedish comics artist Mats Kejonen breathes new life into this timeless work with a bold, illustrated edition. By placing Marx and Engels’s powerful ideas in a modern-day context, Kejonen makes their vision more relevant than ever, delivering a visual experience that challenges and provokes.
Kejonen’s work has been featured in several left-wing magazines in Sweden, and he is a contributor to Palestinaboken (The Book About Palestine). This marks his first publication in English.
