Already in 1976 Siegbert Salomon Prawer had covered this theme in his "Karl
Marx and World Literature" (Oxford UP). I'm not sure that Wheen's pomo
portrait  remaking Marx into a sort of delightfully eccentric English
gentleman will stand the test of time. Still, focusing on Marx as human
being interested in the arts as much as the sciences is a refreshing
alternative to boorish Marxist religions.
