anarchist reading recommendations -- books, anthologies, pamphlets, whatever.

classic texts are fine, but bonus points for more or less obscure but valuable readings.

A bunch of stuff

Good for the question on violence:
Direct Action: Memoirs of an Urban Guerrilla by Ann Hansen
Letters of Insurgents by Fredy Perlman
How it all Began by Bommi Baumann
The Spanish Anarchists: The Heroic Years by Murray Bookchin
Armed Joy by Alfredo Bonanno

Baumann is a communist, and I suggest it for the differing perspective, this is important to understand the further split in that period.

More general insurrectionism, egoism, primitivism.
The Anarchist Tension by Bonanno
Camatte (far-left/communist, but his critique of leftist organisations is similar to that of anarchists, and he is the proto-primitivist)
Against His-story, Against Leviathan by Perlman
At Daggers Drawn
The Poverty of Feminism
Barbarians: The Disordered Insurgence
Sam Moss
Killing King Abacus
Summits and Counter-Summits
Nihilist Communism (far-left again, and go terribly wrong in some places, but their critique of leftist organisation was quite important)
Revolution of Everyday Life by Vaneigem
The Right to be Greedy by the American Situationists
Summits and Counter-Summits
Insurrection
Against the Corpse Machine

Tiqqun should be read as something of a popularised insurrectionism, with situationist and post-liberal philosophy elements. The fact they have been taken up by the institutions makes them relevant in a very strange way.
I wrote this as a joke when I abandoned the left completely:
http://triumvirateproject.tumblr.com/post/58943559281/preliminary-materials-for-a-critique-of-the-nice
It's a ridiculous satire of these colluding worlds of rebellion and popular society, pseudo-intellectualism and automated marxism - and a bit of a mess (I can't find the edited version). But perhaps someone will get something from it as it predates a lot of the SJW madness and the incel discussion.

It just reads like elite students making the struggle to be about themselves. I don’t see the critique or the point

Hence the satirical form... You wanted a clear and concise satire of madness?
>>11797569
Isn't that kind of obvious? OP asked for lesser-known works.
Although I did mean to mention the egoists a little more, the work on violence is really the only one.

I guess? This seems too much on Ivy League shit and if that was what made you leave the left then it is another cliche “disliking the ideology coz of its adherents” episode

ever wonder why Israel has a concrete border wall and the most powerful military in the region, but still Jews are the biggest proponents of communism and anarchism in Europe?
