Dear friends,

Since the early 1950s, Monthly Review Press has been publishing some of the best books on the left. From classics such as "Labor and Monopoly Capital" and "Monopoly Capital" to timely works such as "Vulnerable Planet" and "Korea: Division, Reunification, and U.S. Foreign Policy," MR Press has continued to provide the left with invaluable resources for waging the struggle against capitalism.

Today, the Press needs your help. It has an opportunity to consolidate its finances and expand its operations by making an arrangement with a major academic press to distribute its books. However, to do this, the Press very urgently needs to raise $150,000 within the next month. If it can do this, its future looks very bright. If it cannot, it will very likely have to significantly curtail its operations or even cease publishing altogether.

I urge all Pen-l'ers to make a generous contribution to Monthly Review to make sure that MR Press continues to publish books we all need. Send your contribution to

Monthly Review Foundation 122 West 27th Street New York, NY 10001

While you are at it, subscribe to the magazine. Monthly Review magazine is one of the best left journals in the world.

In solidarity,
