Full Marx
Posted on October 20th, 2008 by timalmond
From The Times (who got a far better headline than I):-
The philosopher whose aim was to “reveal the law of motion of modern society” has become as fashionable as this season’s colour on the catwalk. Marx’s German publisher says sales have been soaring since the summer.
As the book is out of copyright and sales are up, I guess that means that new competitors will come into the market offering various editions of Das Kapital to reach different market segments? I’ll be selling a pre-faded edition for students which includes ready-written margin notes and dog-eared pages so they can look like they were reading it long before everyone else was.
