Well, Rand was a thinker not a writer. This is absolutely horrific. Still, the lady fascinates me.

Counting myself as a champion of collective societies, I enjoyed the argument Anthem made for the importance and power of the individual. I found it predictable and weak in comparison to other dystopias, but it was a quick read and its briefness allowed it to make a different emphasis than others I have read.

Very concise book.
