'Radical' is BS. There really is not much point in paying to be persuaded of some political point. Far more productive is a work that is actually informative.
Everyone here seems to already be conversant in a wide breadth of obscure fiction.
Some works will better equip you to deal with regressive nonsense.For example, if you are well-informed about the Crusades or the Inquisitions, you can humiliate every regressive who tries to parrot these as they always do.
A good(true) history book is radical in this climate. History has a strong reactionary bias. Name a good book on the Crusades or Inquisition and I shall read it, preferably something written before 1942.
Sounds good to me. Let's keep it to radical non-fiction. Everyone here seems to already be conversant in a wide breadth of obscure fiction.

Not me.
