Synopsis
Malcolm MacEwen's autobiography tells the story of his transition from communism and Marxism to the conservation movement - a journey from red to green in the political spectrum, albeit to a green informed by elements of Marxism. It tells of the 15 years MacEwen spent as a "professional communist", working as a foreign editior with the "Daily Worker" until the disenchantment brought about by the Soviet invasion of Hungary. He was a founder of the "New Left Review" which aimed to reflect the "new times" of the 1950s. A subsequent career as an architectural journalist led him in new directions and he became green through a realization that neither Marxist nor capitalist ideologies addressed the question of saving the world. MacEwen's story weaves together many strands - his personal life and his recollections as well as his political observations.
