- Synopsis
- After his 1963 move to Britain, having initially been introduced to leftist politics as a student in Pakistan, Ali (now an editor of New Left Review) threw himself into the tumultuous radical politics of the 1960s. In this memoir of those years, he describes organizing protests against the Vietnam War and other imperialist adventures, discusses the reaction to the Paris student uprisings of 1968, and assesses the achievements of the New Left movements up to 1975, among other topics. This new edition adds a new introduction by Ali, in which he relates themes in the memoir to more recent politics, as well as an interview conducted by Ali and Robin Blackburn with John Lennon as he was become increasingly politically radicalized.
