David Goodway surveys key figures, among them Gerald Brenan, G.K. Chesterton, G.D.H. Cole, George Orwell, Raphael Samuel, E.P. Thompson and Colin Ward. He reflects on literature and experience, offering insights on the Bolshevik Revolution of 1917, the Spanish Revolution, and the Peckham Health Centre as the model for an alternative to the Welfare State.This anthology includes new and pioneering coverage of the Rossetti sisters addressing an episode in the very early days of anarchist activity in the UK. ’Throughout, there runs an emphasis on the connection between British left-libertarianism and literature’. ENDORSEMENT: For some time now, David Goodway has been this country’s leading historian and scholar of British anarchism and left libertarian thought. Following his masterly Anarchist Seeds Beneath the Snow (2006), Left Libertarian Currents offers another collection of elegant, insightful essays on Britain’s finest rebel thinkers. With characteristic precision and verve, Goodway provides both a rigorous history of contemporary free thinking but also a timely and relevant resource for reflecting on the perilous state of our freedom today.
