A strange blight. By Meehan Crist (London Review of Books, Vol.41, No.11, 6 June 2019). Review of Rachel Carson, ‘Silent Spring’ and Other Writings on the Environment, edited by Sandra Steingraber (Library of America, 2018, 546 p.). “Reading Silent Spring today, in the hazy reddish glow of climate catastrophe, is both an exhilarating and a melancholy pleasure.”

Silent Spring. By Martin Empson (Socialist Review, Issue 374, November 2012). “The publication of Silent Spring 50 years ago in September 1962 caused shockwaves through an America dominated by the belief that, through technology, humans could dominate nature in their own interests. The book and its author, Rachel Carson, are credited with inspiring the modern environmental movement.”

Rachel Carson’s ecological critique. By John Bellamy Foster and Brett Clark (Monthly Review, Vol.59, No.9, February 2008). “But Carson’s attack on synthetic pesticides is not her most notable achievement. Rather it is her wider, ecological critique challenging the whole nature of our society that is so important today.”

In defense of Rachel Carson. By Sarah Grey (International Socialist Review, Issue 57, January-February 2008). “In the current era of global environmental crisis, Carson’s work is more relevant today than it has ever been before, and her legacy should be a key part of every left-wing environmental analysis.”

A revolution in paint: 100 years of Picasso’s Demoiselles. By John Molyneux (International Socialism, Issue 115, Summer 2007, p.162-175). “… Les Demoiselles certainly repays serious consideration. Aside from its individual stature as one of the outstanding paintings of the 20th century, there is its enormous importance as a turning point in the history of art and, indeed, wider cultural history, and also its powerful resonance today.”

Myte og virkelighed: Frida Kahlo på Arken. Af John Poulsen (Arbejderen.dk, 26. november 2013). “Få malere har i den grad skildret sig selv som Frida Kahlo. Udstillingen viser, hvordan hun iscenesatte sig selv, ikke kun på malerierne, men også i virkeligheden …”

Here, Mike Gonzalez looks back at the art and politics of a woman who worked hard to curate her own persona, translating her pain and passion into personal and political expression.”

Frida Kahlo: artist and revolutionary. By Judy Cox (Counterfire, August 16, 2018). “Frida Kahlo was a revolutionary and a politically-committed artist whose art condemned the society she revolted agains.”

A brief biography and review of her works: The Frida Kahlo Exhibition at the Tate Modern. By Harry Whittaker (In Defence of Marxism, 7 October 2005). “To admire her work is one thing, to fully appreciate it is another.

By Bernard D’Mello (Monthly Review, Vol.73, No.7, December 2021). “Bhagat Singh is an iconic figure of the radical left tradition in India.
