What about the _Grundrisse_? The Foreword to the 1973 Penguin ed (first full English translation; the _Formen_ were available in an earlier edition introduced and annotated by Hobsbawm) by Martin Nicolaus is itself also required reading. As Nicolaus writes in the Foreword, "The _Grundrisse_ challenges and puts to the test every serious interpretation of Marx yet conceived." David McLellan (somebody mentioned) has also written on the importance of the _Grundrisse_, and this and his other work is recommended (_Marx's Grundrisse_, 1971; a chapter in Walton and Hall's _Situating Marx_, 1972; also for the bio, his _Karl Marx: His Life and Thought_, 1973).
