In 1970, as the heady days of the 60s came to an end, 19-year-old William Powell wrote one of the most infamous books ever published: The Anarchist Cookbook. Part manifesto and part bomb making manual, Cookbook sold over 2 million copies. Now 65, Powell is a man struggling to make sense of the damage it has done, as it wasn’t associated only with acts of protest, but also with terrorist violence. Α cautionary tale of youthful rebellion and unforeseen consequences, and an all-too-human story of a man at the end of his life wrestling with his past.
