What do you mean? The State and Revolution is a phenomenal booklet.

[โ€“] Grapho@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

It's short, it's incredibly concise, it doesn't use needless academicisms, and it's surprisingly very funny. It's probably the best value-to-volume ratio of any political text imo.

Oh, that's a tough one! Socialism: Utopian and Scientific is definitely a top contender, but Lenin is clearer. Maybe Foundations of Leninism? Either way, I 100% agree, State and Revolution is a must read.
