The Socialist Equality Party yesterday launched the English-language edition of Why Are They Back? Historical Falsification, Political Conspiracy and the Return of Fascism in Germany<\/em>, at London\u2019s prestigious Foyles Bookshop. Mehring Books participated in the London Book Fair in the week leading up to the launch.<\/p>\n

Around 150 people from across the country, including workers, students and professionals, heard speeches from Christoph Vandreier, the author of Why Are They Back?<\/em> and the deputy chairman of the Socialist Equality Party (Germany), and from David North, chairperson of the World Socialist Web<\/em> S<\/em> ite<\/em> International Editorial Board.<\/p>\n

Vandreier and North\u2019s contributions were received with great interest and prompted several questions from the audience in the course of a Q&A. Well over \u00a31,000-worth of literature was sold on the day, including over 70 copies of Why Are They Back,<\/em> as well as Mehring Books\u2019 most recent title, Agents: The FBI and GPU Infiltration of the Trotskyist Movement<\/em> and several works by North.<\/p>\n

Most people stayed on after the meeting closed to continue discussions with WSWS reporters and members of the SEP. Many asked to have their books signed by Vandreier. A more extensive report of the launch will follow.<\/p>\n
