Anthem

Summary

Through her fiction, Ayn Rand sought to popularize her self-created philosophy of Objectivism, which advocated a libertarian individualism as the ideal foundation for a healthy society and which staunchly opposed any form of authoritarian control. The classic dystopian novella, Anthem, is one of the earliest books to explore a theme which has become a standard motif in science fiction literature: the search for individualistic expression in a repressive and rigorously organized society.
