    So, recently, I’ve been trying to get off devices more and read, but I don’t know any good punk/anarchist literature. I’ve read 1984 and I’m currently reading brave new world, but I’m looking for more suggestions. Does anyone have any recommendations? Also I’ve read Punk rock Jesus and V for Vendatta, but those were more for fun then to be informed. Looking for anything really.
    Thank you

    Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury. If you enjoyed 1984 and Brave New World then Fahrenheit would be similar.

    I mostly read non-fiction, but if you want some anarchist books on that department as well let me know. :)

    A Good Place To Start Is Your Music Collection. I Love Reading The Lyrics, Liner Notes,
    Which Usually Have Lots Of Ideology, Attitude, Tributes To Other Mates, And So On.
    Sometime Albums And CDs Come With Booklets, And Of Course Booths At Shows With
    Lots Of Great Info, Too. :a: aint ashamed :antifa:

    Okay, here's a few recommendations!

    • Bakunin, Michail: God and the State (1882) ISBN: 9781535007030
      (Read for free in The Anarchist Library)
    This was one of the first books on anarchism I read. It starts off pretty easy but get a bit complicated down the line, but it's always good to have some knowledge of the old ones (Bakunin, Proudhon, Goldman, Kropotkin, Malatesta etc).​

    Sort of like a collection of texts to wrap our heads around some parts of modern day anarchism.​

    Not specifically about anarchism, but written by an anarchist about how this system creates bullshit jobs (not bullshit as in repetetive, hard or dirty, but as in pointless - made up in a system where everyone has to work no matter what), what those jobs do to our soul and how we got there.​

    • Guérin, Daniel: Anarchism From Theory To Practice (1970) ISBN: 9780853451754
      (Read for free in The Anarchist Library)
    A brief overview of anarchism in practice during its uprising and during the Russian, Italian and Spanish revolutions respectively.​

    If you liked 1984 you will probably like Animal Farms too!

    Bakunin's God and the State is probably one of the best places to start from.
