Condition remarks:
Condition: Good to fair. Paperback. Page Condition: Good - possible tanning. Markings: possible previous owner inscription.
A landmark work of philosophical fiction, Anthem presents a dystopian future where individuality has been utterly abolished and the word I has been erased from human language. Set in a dark collectivist society, it chronicles the journey of Equality 7-2521, a young man whose restless intellect and independent spirit drive him to rediscover the forgotten concept of the self. Rand's spare, allegoric prose argues passionately for the supremacy of individual reason and personal freedom over the crushing conformity of the collective. A precursor to her monumental works The Fountainhead and Atlas Shrugged, this novella remains one of the most potent and enduring defences of individualism ever written.
