Description:

What is this summer's most radical online project?

*Insurgent Summer*
is an online book reading and cooperative blog discussion of Fredy Perlman’s 1976 book /*Letters of Insurgents*/. This is a 800+ page book of fictional letters between two Eastern European workers, Yarostan Vochek and Sophia Nachalo, separated by twenty-five years and two continents. As they reconnect through an exchange of letters, we learn about the battles they have fought – physical, political, emotional, and moral – and eventually the ones they have left to
fight.

Your reading of */Letters/* will begin on *June 11, 2010*, with the first of the ten exchanges between Yarostan and Sophia. Each week, three "Guides" (DeAnna, Artnoose, and Andrej) will post discussion pieces, reflections and analysis, preparing the terrain for an engaging discussion to which everyone is invited! We will conclude on August 20, in honor of Fredy Perlman's birthday!

Though copies of the book are limited, we are happy announce that we have both audio and full-text downloads of */Letters of Insurgents/*
available.

Insurgent Summer is an opportunity to read one of the most important books of anarchist fiction and morality of all time.

Please visit *http://insurgentsummer.org/*

for more information, and let us know that you're going to participate!

Also please post on websites, twitter feeds, send to friends, etc.!
