Summary: 5 Stars
At once so familiar and so strange, Ayn Rand's Anthem is a phenomenal experience. She exalts the joy of man and individuality, and impresses upon the reader not only the importance of thought and scholarship, but the importance of original thought, and of self.Book Review: a must read
Summary: 5 Stars
Ayn Rand hits the nail on the head with this clear, thoughtful, hard hitting novel. A page turner with a message. wow.Book Review: classic dystopian novel
Summary: 4 Stars
This is an interesting book, though I'm not sure we could call it a full novel, more of a novella at just over 100 pages. It's the near future and the individual has been swallowed by the collective. It's a utopian/dystopian novel in the family of Orwell's 1984 and Huxley's Brave New World. It's a decent enough story, though you can tell it is an early work with the simplistic style of writing (though Rand was new to the English language when she wrote it). The only real problem with the book is that it gets a little 'philosophical' and preachy, at times to the detriment of the story itself. Still, I like the genre and it is a positive addition to it.Book Review: fantastic!
