Karl Marx’s Life and Legacy, in aComicby Maria Popova
From the opium of the masses to the downfall ofcapitalism, by way of love and revolution.
The history of our species is rife with
ideologies — political, religious, social,
philosophical — that have been either wholly
hijacked from their creators or gradually
warped, with only fragments of the original
vision intact, doomed to being continually
misunderstood by posterity.
On the heels of the excellent graphic
biography of Freud, British indie press Nobrow
is back with Marx (public library) by Swiss
writer, economist, historian, and
psychoanalyst Corinne Maier and French
illustrator Anne Simon — an illuminating chronicle of the life and legacy of
a man at once reviled as “the Devil” for denouncing capitalism and
celebrated for his ideals of eradicating inequality, injustice, and exploitation
from the world. More than the sum total of his political legacy, Marx’s story
is also one of great personal turmoil and tragedy, inner conflict, and moral
tussle — subtleties that the comic genre, with its gift for stripping
complexities to their simplest truths without losing dimension, reveals with
great sensitivity and insight.
