Recommend this event
Karl Marx has in common with Freud and Darwin the fate that his books are more referred to than they are read.
John Lanchester, author of Whoops! Why Everyone Owes Everyone and No One Can Pay and a new novel, Capital, looks at Karl Marx as a prophet and analyst of the modern world, how well his predictions have turned out, and what he would have made of the state we’re in.
