Lenin writes a lot of correct things about the relations of the current state apparatus to capital, and a lot of quotes feel like they're picked out of a modern political conversation. Although, it feels as if he's retconning a lot of Marx and Engel's work while injecting his own interpretation into them.

The story lines were split. The one about the girls was entertaining, but the one about the husband and wife got a bit tedious and infuriating. The end was worth it though.
