My favorite book deals with how the bourgeois class will always take from the harder working, more productive proletariat. That no matter how much the bourgeois feast upon the profits of someone else's hard labor they will never truly be satisfied. For example, Lenin theorized that colonialism is the highest form of capitalism, because the market of the home could not sustain ever demanding capitalist and they would seek new markets to prey upon. Thus leading to nations, under pressure by the bourgeois, to invade and occupy foreign lands for even further profits. Bringing about colonialism, one of the worse ills created by Western society. This idea of the ever feeding beast of capitalism is just beautifully described within the book. The ultimate end goal is that the beast is finally done feasting upon the profits, the markets, and the proletariat to finally break free of its capitalist chains and metamorphosis into true Socialism, where the beast no longer eats but instead literally flies free from the chains of greed and capitalism. It is for these deeper meanings that my favorite book is The Very Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle. A must read for anyone researching Marxism, communism, and Russian History.
