Firmin II

"I loved it when he talked about the revolution too, about Joe Hill, Peter Kropotkin, and the Paterson strike. One of his favorite phrases was "after the revolution." When people bought his books, he would apologize for taking their money and tell them that books were going to be free after the revolution, a public service like streetlights. He also said Jesus was a Communist, which caused some of the people to get worked up."
