I listened to an audio recording and found it immensely helpful to picture these "commodities" changing hands in my head

Honestly for a mid 1800s economics book written by a German dude it wasn't anywhere near as bad as I thought it would be to understand.

It also helps that he repeats explanations about concepts a thousand times a hundred different ways. Though eventually you're just like "holy fuck Marx, I got it. Yes I understood the surplus value of labor like 200 pages ago"

As someone with ADHD, this was immensely helpful for me. I was able to understand concepts like surplus value and the value of labour vs. the value of labour power on my first read.
