Books from The Barn

Creating Anarchy by Ron Sakolsky (Fifth Estate Books 2005) $15 Twenty chapters in a dynamic collage of ideas and action. This vibrant collection glows with flames of discontent and defiance and flows with waves of laughter and possibility. Ranging widely from Mayday to Utopia, from Refusal to Autonomy, and from Insurrection to Imagination, this compilation is in turn defiant, reflective, and playful–a brick for hurling through the windows of despair and a doorway to creating an anarchy that is not afraid to dream.

Ron Sakolsky’s anthologies Gone to Croatan, Surrealist Subversions, and Seize the Airwaves are also available from The Barn.

Oystercatcher–free with a book order, while supplies last.

As we go to press, The Barn is undergoing some re-organization. We’re adding some titles, dropping others, and trying to finally produce a complete catalog of our available materials.

RL Project

RL Project in Kosovo is still going strong. They receive donations of books and zines at an address in Switzerland, and the materials are delivered through an NGO humanitarian convoy. The group has opened a children’s corner and they are specifically asking for postal stamps, stickers, and other kid type things. A friend in Michigan says she received a very nice thank you note from them for a donation of contemporary anarchist zines. Their mailing address is RL Project, c/o PF44, [remainder missing in print original]
