Publisher's Synopsis
The Message is a birds eye view of the origin of Marxism, how it came to be a political system, what kind of a society it is, its daily life, all woven around my personal experience.
"The remarkable power of his "message" derives not from rhetorical device but from the searing authenticity of his early life experience." "Without exception, the most potent critiques Soviet Communism have been written by those who have had first-hand experience of it." "His [Dr, Michael Hansen] engrossing book "The Message" is both a history of his daily life under Communism and a philosophical and moral meditation upon Romanian Communism as a spiritual pathology."-Professor John Fleming, Professor Emeritus of literature at Princeton University, Fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences and Past President of the Medieval Academy of America. "The way the author was able to capture the stark reality of life under a Communist government, and the ways in which Communism strikes down the idea of individuality in those nations, was both heartbreaking and eye-opening to read about."-Pacific Book Review by Jack Chambers
