Avis sur le produitAnthem by Ayn Rand (1996, Mass Market, Anniversary,Revised edition)

Anthem by Ayn Rand

This particular paperback copy of "Anthem" is interesting in that it includes the author's original draft, with her numerous editoral corrections and deletions written in her own hand.

One of the finest stories of human triumph, this author takes us on the amazing journey of one man bound by the chains of a stark, loveless, and brutally collective society yet who's spirit cannot be broken as he dares to dream of and reach out for a better world. I believe the message that speaks loudest to me in this great story is the fact that we cannot ever expect things to change by allowing them to stay the same. Some rules must be broken in order to achieve great things, and some truths will remain abundantly clear in spite of being against the grain of what is "acceptable to society". Human spirit is truly indomitable, and capable of anything when there is belief in the truth of one's convictions and one's mission. We, I feel, must never forget that.Lire l'avis complet...

This book will get you thinking!

Great book, though it is a classic---my 13 year old son and I enjoyed reading it together and he could definitely see its importance and applications to today's society, governmental control, and the need for free-thinking. We are also looking forward to the movie Atlas Shrugged when it comes out which was another excellent book written by her. Ayn Rand was definitely an author way ahead of her time, and will get your thinking. This book has undertones of the fear brought about during the pre WWII era similar to George Orwell's 1984. I highly recommend it!Lire l'avis complet...

Marked up

This book is so marked up and crossed out by the previous owner that is is unreadable. Should’ve been thrown in the bin instead of sold. Lame.

Good seller

It's the anniversary edition and the back pages have some words scratched out but then I realized it was the author's own editing and really has nothing to do with the story.
