So difficult to find sympathetic fiction online. Currently looking at a book called The Sympathizer by a Vietnamese author about a pro-Vietnamese double agent living in Amerika, seems interesting. Every other search result is anti-communist piss splattered over pages and sold as “gripping, realistic, startlingly accurate”.

Even if it’s bad writing or whatever, I’m curious if any of y’all know some explicitly or implicitly communist fiction worth checking out.

    I read quite a lot of manga. Berserk is very good and it’s sad that Miura never got to finish it. I’ve also read most of Junji Ito’s (horror) works, I think (Uzumaki is definitely the best one)

    Unfortunately, I’ve found very few anti-capitalist series. The only one I can think of is “Destroy and Revolution”, and it’s infuriatingly awful past the halfway point (very disappointing because the premise was really interesting)
