Liberated Texts is an independent book review website which features works of ongoing relevance that have been forgotten, underappreciated, suppressed or misinterpreted in the cultural mainstream since their release.

Although not exclusively, we are interested in texts with anti-colonial, anti-imperialist themes and those related to the history of Marxism, communism and revolution globally.

In addition to our reviews, we have also formed a publishing partnership with Ebb Books in order to (re)publish or publish in English for the first time some similarly underappreciated texts. The first publication released as part of this collaboration was an English language translation of Ghassan Kanafani’s On Zionist Literature, originally published in Arabic in 1967.

“Books differ from all other propaganda media… because one book can significantly change the reader’s attitude and action to an extent unmatched by the impact of any other single medium… [books are] the most important weapons of strategic (long term) propaganda.”

Head of Covert Action, CIA, 1961
