"Andy Merrifield is original, erudite, politically alive and readable. And above all, this book will be (in strictiy the first sense of the term) thought-provoking!" John Berger novelist and critic
"Andy Merrifield brings us a Marxism that is `warmer' than most recent forms, Marxism as it might have been imagined by DH Lawrence or one of the great Latin American novelists. He wants us to reimagine Marxism without bureaucracy and without commissars. if we can get deep into the ideas themselves, they can be a life force for us. Andy helps us see how Marxism can make us more authentic human beings." Marshali. Berman author of all that is Solid Metts into air
Following his hugely popular book, The Wisdom of Donkeys, Andy Merrifield breathes new life into the Marxist tradition.
Magical Marxism demands something more of traditional Marxism---something more interesting and liberating. It asks that we imagine a Marxism that moves beyond debates about class, the role of the state and the dictatorship of the proletariat.

This book will provoke and inspire in equal measure. It gives us a Marxism for the twenty-first century, which offers dramatic new possiblilities for political engagement.
