/lit/ - Literature

Okay im on chapter 25 and im starting to tune out desu
He talks about malthus and how a surplus population is necessary for capital accumulation.
Can anybody expand on that?
Also does anybody have an abriged secondary version of capital?

This book seems like itll never end.
I on chapter 15,apparently it has 33 chapters.
Ive yet to see anything that stands out yet.
Just the appaling working conditions of 19th century england, something about guilds under feudalism and machinery.
Ill get there.
After i finish these books if somebody tells me to read marx ill type in all caps.

I didnt pay attention the first time, im going to try again. Wish me luck.
