Revolution Books is a vibrant hub for literature, poetry, history, science, art, and revolutionary theory. The store is alive with the scientific understanding that a better world is possible, serving as the political, intellectual, and cultural center of a movement for an actual revolution. At the heart of the store is the framework for unleashing the revolutionary potential of humanity, the new communism developed by Bob Avakian. While the bookstore offers a diverse and beautiful selection of titles, caution is advised as the staff may try to convince visitors to get involved in the works of their "leader." Despite this, the bookstore is praised for its friendly and knowledgeable staff, great used book sales, and the opportunity to find alternative viewpoints and challenge one's belief system.
Found them at the BookFest last weekend and everyone at the booth was so nice and well informed about the books they were selling! Got even more reading recs from my choices. Super glad they have a storefront because I went in there and improved my at home library even more.

Very unique place. I am glad that such a bookstore exists. The employees are very kind and patient to answer any and all questions.

Popped in here on a whim while looking for the elevator to the parking garage and ended up spending a lot of time browsing around the store. Great selection of radical literature, and a wonderful selection of graphic novels dealing with heavy subject matters
