About the book :

As much an adventure story as an unofficial chronicle of modern global
resistance movements, Clandestines spirits the reader into subterranean
locales, carefully weaving the narrative through illicit encounters and
public bacchanals. From the teeming squats of Berlin, to intrigue in the
Zapatista Autonomous Zone, a Croatian Rainbow Gathering on the heels of
the G8 protests in Genoa, mutiny on the high seas, the Quixotic ambitions
of a Kurdish guerilla camp, the contradictions of Cuba, and the neoliberal
nightmare of post-war(s) Central America we see everywhere a world in
flux, struggling to be reborn.

About the author:

Ramor Ryan is a rebellious Irish rover who makes his home between New York
City and Chiapas, Mexico.

Praise for Clandestines:

"Tired of dry political analysis that leaves you wondering what's really
happening in the world? Ramor Ryan's grassroots revelations beautifully
recounts his own experiences, revealing the inside story of revolutions
and contemporary movement scenes. No gods, no masters? Here's a book worth
enjoying."

George Katsiaficas, The Subversion of Politics

"These poetic tales of anti-capitalist resistance and autonomous spaces
are as heartbreaking as they are filled with heart, and that is precisely
their clear-eyed utopian beauty."
Cindy Milstein.
