I found this in the review you linked to:

In addition, the book is fascinating for its many insights into Communism's roots. You might be surprised to learn who these French authors consider to be the real father of Communism (hint: not Marx). And most readers would certainly be surprised to learn that Soviet leaders so greatly respected one Western saint that they erected a monument to him at the Kremlin.

I'm curious, who is this "real father of communism" that's mentioned here?

I don't know, but Rousseau seems likely.
