Do you want to read The Communist Manifesto? If so then keep reading… 'It was a sweet finish after the bitter pills of floggings and bullets with which these same governments, just at that time, dosed the German working-class risings’. The Communist Manifesto is, perhaps surprisingly, a most engaging and accessible work, containing even the odd shaft of humour in this translation by Samuel Moore for the 1888 English edition.

Together with Friedrich Engels, he founded 'historical materialism’ and became the most influential theorist of socialism and communism, the main features of which were set out in the programmatic Manifesto of the Communist Party (1848). Marx’s main work is considered to be Das Kapital, the first volume of which was published during his lifetime in 1867; the two subsequent volumes were published posthumously by Engels.
