finally, a book where the protagonist turns to the camera and says she's exactly the kind of market socialist I am
Quote from a book by Francis Spufford:

"I am up for a certain amount of the liquidation of the rentier—at least, the stupider ones. And while the war lasts I want maximum productivity, and that means the mobilization of capital. But afterwards... I'd rather like to get back to the market."

"Good heavens," said Keynes. "Have I encountered a believer in capitalism who is under the age of fifty?"
