Synopsis "Resist! In Defence of Communism: 5 (Verzet) (in English)"
Originally published in Dutch in 2017, this essay is a critique on the intellectual hold of destructive, non-sustainable capitalism on Western thought. It challenges the way that Soviet and Chinese totalitarianism has been used to discredit the idealism of 19th century communism. Reaching out from the intellectual and historical legacy of Karl Marx and Rosa Luxemburg, Peek investigates what he sees as the inevitable failure of capitalism, and argues for a fairer redistribution of knowledge, power and income. 'Heartbreaking (Het Parool, *****)* 'The composition of the novel gives the book great elegance... The book is like a crumpled drawing that is slowly being unfolded and smoothed out (NRC Handelsblad)* 'With its sturdy, sensual pen lining, and the courage to keep storylines erratic, Peek manages to write a novel that is both exciting and moving' (De Groene Amsterdammer)* 'Peek is a great writer (TROS News Show)
