>>	Anonymous Sat Dec 6 23:42:36 2014 No.5827222 Animal Farm, it's like 70 pages

>>	Anonymous Sat Dec 6 23:47:24 2014 No.5827237 Heart of Darkness. Also the most rewarding, after Rand.

>>	Anonymous Sat Dec 6 23:55:39 2014 No.5827278 Animal Farm, Communist Manifesto and The prince are pretty easy

>>	Anonymous Sun Dec 7 00:05:17 2014 No.5827308 >>5827198 Fastest one is probably Communist Manifesto. Lots of repetition of ideas there and the language couldn't be more basic. After that, I'm betting The Prince, but Marx's is by far a quicker read than any other you listed..

>>	Anonymous Sun Dec 7 00:17:19 2014 No.5827361 >>5827198 retarded question, you're probably a child. BUt I would assume Animal Farm, even though I can't really picture all of these. It's simple and short. Heart of Darkness is short as fuck too, way more dense.
