Interventions, by Noam Chomsky, is getting new press after the Pentagon banned the book from Guantanamo Bay's prison library. Interventions is Noam Chomsky at his best. Not since his all-time best-selling title, 9/11, published in the Open Media series in 2001, have readers and listeners had a timely, short, affordable Chomsky. Unlike 9/11, Interventions is a writerly work - a series of more than 30 tightly argued essays aimed at various aspects of U.S. power and politics in the post-9/11 world. While critical of U.S. military interventions around the globe, each piece in the book is in itself an intellectual intervention.

However, it is often sensationalized or seen through a narrow, US-centric lens.

Emotional trauma crashes into your life, throwing you to the ground, usually without warning. In that moment, your life sucks, and that fact sucks any remaining life out of you. The trauma crushes you, suffocating you, changing everything. This kind of stress places a burden on your physical, mental, emotional, spiritual, and behavioral health. To be restored requires significant change. To live well requires diligent attention to self-care and guidance through the process of healing and recovery.

In the essays collected here, spanning the Millennial generation's many agonies, Chris Cutrone cuts through the accumulated legacy of failures that the Millennials inherited from the Left of the 20th century and that blocked their view of the socialist politics needed to turn the crisis of neoliberal capitalism into a struggle to overcome capitalism.
