Exciting new Anarchist e-book novel

Kevin Eady | 18.04.2013 09:02 | Culture | History | Workers' Movements

Some anarchist fiction at last! This is a self-published e-book and is the autobiography of a fictional 101-year-old Spanish anarchist.

The hero of my novel, Buenaventura García, is born on the first day of the Tragic Week in Barcelona in 1909. Throughout his long-life the personal and political continually intersect and, strangely, he finds himself frequently embroiled in significant events of 20th century anarchism; the 'war of the pistoleros', the rising in the village of Casas Viejas, the Iron Column in the Spanish Civil War and other events outside of Spain. Thankfully, Buenaventura also has a personal life; a 'free union' with his childhood sweetheart Federica, a number of children and several romantic liaisons after his exile from Spain. The ending of the book contains some surprising and shocking twists.

I won't say anything more for now, but you can obtain the e-book, entitled "Uncontrollable", from

If you don't have e-book technology you can still download it to a PC or laptop. You can sample the first 20% for free. If you don't want to buy directly you can get it from Apple, Barnes and Noble, Sony, Kobo or Diesel (not yet from Amazon or hard-copy). Happy reading.

You need to be more subtle

Although the anarchists here pretend not to be involved in commerce and get very sniffy about it (see comment above) in fact they all do it however you need to be more subtle in your advertising:

1 pretend this is linked to some sort of campaign (it doesn't matter which)

2 make a vague reference to it being a benefit for something (you don't need to be specific)

3 give the impression it is an academic project

4 make a statement that you are some sort of oppressed minority. Here on Indymedia they love a Muslim but Kurds were popular sometime back and if you want to pretend to be a Black woman that always helps

Give it a week or so and repost with a different name and you should be ok

Good luck with the book
