On the centenary of the 1917 Russian Revolution, paeans to the conquering Bolsheviks will be sung. Bloodstained highlights the darker echoes coming from that event, with a mixture of classic and new essays that expose a murderous dictatorship as it developed, paving the way for Stalin, Mao, Castro, and others to slaughter and starve their opponents. The defense of this criminal enterprise, later categorized as "actually existing socialism," ends here. No more velvet-gloved hagiography. No more Lenins.

Includes essays from Mark Leier, Barry Pateman, Alexander Berkman, Iain McKay, Herman Gorter, Rudolf Rocker, Luigi Fabbri, Maurice Brinton, and more.
