Writer and critic Vivian Gornick’s long-unavailable classic exploring how Left politics gave depth and meaning to American life.
“Before I knew that I was Jewish or a girl I knew that I was a member of the working class.”
So begins Vivian Gornick’s exploration of how the world of socialists, communists, and progressives in the 1940s and 1950s created a rich, diverse world where ordinary men and women felt their lives connected to a larger human project.
Now back in print after its initial publication in 1977 and with a new introduction by the author, The Romance of American Communism is a landmark work of new journalism, profiling American Communist Party members and fellow travelers as they joined the Party, lived within its orbit, and left in disillusionment and disappointment as Stalin’s crimes became public.

Thanks!

Seriously??
Written in a Cult Like manner.
“how the world of socialists, communists, and progressives in the 1940s and 1950s created a rich, diverse world where ordinary men and women felt their lives connected to a larger human project.”
This book should begin with “Once upon a time…”
A murderous philosophy that has caused Poverty, Misery, Tyranny and Murder on a scale yet to be equaled or surpassed.
Less than Zero rating.

Thank you! Do you have “The Situation and the Story”?

“Socialists, communists, and progressives in the 1940s and 1950s created a rich, diverse world where ordinary men and women felt their lives connected to a larger human project,” until Stalin would betray them with a knife in their back, because the utilitarian ethics of socialism always tends toward tyranny.

The “romance’ is similar to meeting a good looking woman of “easy virtue”. She looks good on the outside, but will give you a terminal social disease when you get too close.
Romanticizing a philosophy that has tortured and murdered millions. I’ll pass

apollo60 &Jiminy Cricket… yes to your comments! Communism is ALWAYS a bait & switch between promises made and what’s delivered! Night and day.
