Brilliantly researched and wonderfully written, LOVE AND
CAPITAL is a heartbreaking and dramatic saga of the family
side of the man whose works would redefine the world after
his death. Drawing upon years of research, acclaimed biographer Mary
Gabriel brings to light the story of Karl and Jenny Marx's
marriage. We follow them as they roam Europe, on the run
from governments amidst an age of revolution and a secret
network of would-be revolutionaries, and see Karl not only
as an intellectual, but as a protective father and loving
husband, a revolutionary, a jokester, a man of tremendous
passions, both political and personal. In LOVE AND CAPITAL, Mary Gabriel has given us a vivid,
resplendent, and truly human portrait of the Marxes-their
desires, heartbreak and devotion to each other's ideals.
