The Hobbit: The Battle of Five Armies

VRG participants — for what it’s worth, for many years the HTML version of this classic essay by Ellen Willis (which will be part of the supplementary readings for our discussion tomorrow evening) was missing a fairly large chunk of the original text of Willis’s article, due to some severe excerpting-for-length that occurred in the anthology that the HTML version was based on. I’m happy to announce that the text has now been updated and enlarged, to match the original essay as it appeared in RAMPARTS (June 1970). Enjoy! Also: it’s a pretty good, provocative essay, even if you’re not in the VRG. http://ift.tt/1ryI1jS
