    History holds many examples of political activists who have paid for their politics with their lives. From military suppressions to secretly engineered assassinations, the price of revolutionary politics is often dear, especially when the revolutionaries are writers, whose only offences against the state are their words. In a powerful study of three victims of political assassination, Barbara Harlow explores the intricate relations between politically engaged imaginative writing and participation in revolutionary struggles. Ghassan Kanafani in Palestine, Roque Dalton in El Salvador and Ruth First in South Africa laboured on behalf of social revolutions that none of them lived to see. In all three cases, the result of the armed conflict in which they were involved has been negotiated settlements with the enemy. After Lives explores the complex tensions that motivate and condition political writing, as well as its legacies to the movements in whose names it was undertaken. A product of political passion and engagement, but also an impressive work of scholarship, After Lives measures the costs and benefits that accrue to writers who put their lives and works on the line.
