An Anarchist In Honolulu: The Hawaiian Writings of Andrej Klemenčič

From The Transmetropolitan Review

Andrej Klemenčič was born on November 30, 1867 in the town of Spodnja Šiška, just north of Ljubljana, the historical capital of Slovenia. At the time of Andrej’s birth, Slovenia was under the rule of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, and he grew up under their despotic reign until 1880 when he began to wander across the Earth. This unique journey not only made Andrej a committed anarchist, it eventually delivered him to the port of Honolulu on the Hawaiian island of Oahu.

The Divine Exegesis of the Romanian Anarchist Barabule Cutarescu

From The Transmetropolitan Review

Hello? Are you there? It’s me, Barabule Cuterescu, your friendly Moldovan potato, currently lying frozen in the ground in a small village in northeastern Romania, otherwise known as the Moldova region. If this is your first time meeting me, just know I was roped into writing about Romania close to five years ago now, and this will be my final dispatch to you losers in the US, given that you basically live in Romania now, but only worse: you live in Russia in 1993, and you are about to picked clean by the vultures of avarice.

An Anarchist's Guide to No Country for Old Men

From Transmetropolitan Review

One of the few contemporary writers he liked and knew well was Edward Abbey, author of The Monkey Wrench Gang, which, despite it’s many flaws, was highly influential among anarchists in the United States, given it encouraged industrial sabotage in defense of the earth.

An Anarchist’s Guide to Erewhon

From The Transmetropolitan Review

If the reader will excuse me, I’ll say nothing of the circumstances which led me to leave my native country; the narrative would be tedious to you and painful to myself. Needless to say, I found myself at the base of tall, foreign mountains, brown and black and gray, sparsely speckled with small plants of the darkest green. Beneath these titanic mountains ran a great causeway, a freeway, commonly known to the locals as the 210, or the Foothill Freeway.

The Anarchist Historian Radium Levin

From The Transmetropolitan Review

The first historian of the anarchist Home Colony was Radium Levin, born there in 1903. He was actually born at a hospital in Tacoma, but he was raised at Home along the sea, within the trees, like dozens of other anarchist children. Decades later, Radium had legally changed his name to Ray LaVen, but in his report-backs for the Home Colony reunions, he always signed with the simple name Radium. It was during the 1945 reunion in Los Angeles that he presented his major work of history, There Was No Place Like Home, a 35-page chronology of events at Home, along with reflections from those who lived there.

The Accidental Anarchist Laurent Casas

From the transmetropolitan review

A veil exists between the world above and the realms that are below; and shadow came into being beneath the veil; and that shadow became matter; and that shadow was projected apart. And what she had created became a product in the matter, like an aborted fetus. And it assumed a plastic form molded out of shadow, and became an arrogant beast resembling a lion.
