Illusion and Reality

Exploring the intersection of economics and poetry, this treatise delves into how British poetry reflects the economic paradigms of its time, framed through a Marxist lens. Authored by Christopher Caudwell, a prominent Marxist thinker and poet, the work reexamines various fields, including poetry and philosophy, under the influence of Marxism. This edition not only revives a rare vintage text but also includes a new biography of Caudwell, enriching the reader's understanding of his contributions to literature and political thought.
