Even more fun is Marx in Soho where an administrative error in the afterlife sends Marx back to Soho in New York rather than in London. The whole play is a single monologue where Marx talks about his ideas, his family, sips beer, rants about Bakunin, and essentially give a commentary about modern American life and capitalism.
One little spoiler, Marx is not a Marxist. Every time I read anything from Zinn, from the Bomb to his plays in this book, I enjoy the deep analysis, the flowing prose, and the underlying moral message of a great historian.
