The thing about Leftist books is that the kind of weird incestuous citations that Wikipedia goes through is the same kind of narrative weaving that Leftist books go through.
It's why they tell you that you can't even criticize a position of theirs until you've read every single book that exists on the subject from all available authors (but only the ones from a Leftist perspective). Meanwhile, you can bet your ass they've never even heard of "Surplus Value" while they espouse Marxism.
The purpose of Leftist books is to re-enforce narrative, and use as a cudgel. Putting your books on display is far more important than reading them.
