Love and Capital

A surprising and revelatory account of romance and revolution-and one of the great love stories of all time. Brilliantly researched and wonderfully written, LOVE AND CAPITAL is a heartbreaking and dramatic saga of the family side of the man whose works would redefine the world after his death. Drawing upon years of research, acclaimed biographer Mary Gabriel brings to light the story of Karl and Jenny Marx's marriage to reveal a Karl Marx who is not only an intellectual, but also a protective father, loving husband, a visionary, a jokester, and a man of tremendous passions.
