The Square

The third book by V. M. Straka, published around 1915.

It focuses on the Haymarket Bombing, one of the deadliest clashes between labor and authorities in American history. It provides little-known details and facts about the event, that have been proven to be true after its publication. This suggests that the author had first-hand knowledge, if not participation in them, like Reinhold Feuerbach.

It features Franzl, a solitary man with no possessions who emerges from Lake Michigan and sneaks in Chicago, 10 days before the massacre at Haymarket Square. The book appears to tell the hidden story behind the event with an indisputable ring of truth.

P. 88 features the phrase "They radiate an unmistakeable potential--and perhaps even a taste--for violence".

P. 63, 101, 119 feature three different views of the same gesture, someone setting and resetting his grip on a tool.

The above details are also found in the Ship of Theseus.
