Recenzje

In his impassioned and deeply researched book, The Cry of the Renegade, Raymond B. Craib brings alive the roiling streets of Santiago in the interwar years. ... Craib tells a romantic story of martyrdom, while always being especially careful not to romanticize it, and of how a kind of radicalism of another era tried to face down a world looking far too much like our own ... without ever falling into the traps of presentism. ... At the same time, he provides a compelling and complex account of anarchism, which is far more attractive, far more radical, and far more open — especially to other currents in the 'capacious Left' — than any presented by its current acolytes in geography.
