A Talk Between Two Workers. Oakland: Man!, 1933.
Title
A Talk Between Two Workers. Oakland: Man!, 1933.
Description
This is the rare work in English in the collection (although I have a large number of works in English) because it is clearly a translation of a work of Malatesta's written in Italian, and following a well-worn formula of workers talking to each other, educating each other, as a pedagogical tool, rather than a speaker or writer more abstractly discussing political issues.
Note the stamp of the bookseller who had this pamphlet available for sale: the Industrial Unionist Bookshop, at 96 East 10th Street in New York. No publication information.
My information about publisher name, place of publication and date all derive from copies available for sale on the internet, which all bear the 1933 date, and have a drawing of Malatesta on the cover, and noting preface by Aurora Alleva, that is lacking in this copy.
The New York Public Library, however, has a copy of this work published in London in a presumed publication in the early 1900s.
