Available for the first time in trade paperback--this provocative book is "an anthem sung in praise of man's ego"--from the legendary author Ayn Rand
Anthem has long been hailed as one of Ayn Rand's classic novels, and a clear predecessor to her later masterpieces, The Fountainhead and Atlas Shrugged. In Anthem, Rand examines a frightening future in which individuals have no name, no independence, and no values. Equality 7-2521 lives in the dark ages of the future where all decisions are made by committee, all people live in collectives, and all traces of individualism have been wiped out. Despite such a restrictive environment, the spark of individual thought and freedom still burns in him--a passion which he has been taught to call sinful. In a purely egalitarian world, Equality 7-2521 dares to stand apart from the herd--to think and choose for himself, to discover electricity, and to love the woman of his choice. Now he has been marked for death for committing the ultimate sin. In a world where the great "we" reign supreme, he has rediscovered the lost and holy word--"I."
安·兰德是美国当代最有影响的作家、思想家和公共知识分子之一。
安·兰德宣扬极端个人主义精神,是理性利已主义的倡导者,与利他主义和自我牺牲的伦理学形成最为尖锐的对抗。
在美国,她的作品的销量仅次于《圣经》。
有人说不了解安·兰德就无法理解美国精神。许多大名鼎鼎的人物,包括美联储主席格林斯潘、甲骨文CEO埃里森都是安·兰德哲学的拥趸。
我。 我是谁?我为什么活着?我想要什么?我在世界上扮演着怎样的角色? 我所作出的每一个决定是不是基于自由的选择?自由是什么?幸福又是什么? 每一天,每一时,每一刻,这些念头萦绕在我的心里,挥之不去。 社会赋予了我很多身份,首当其冲的是——...
评分安·兰德向来咄咄逼人,辩才十分之好,在那本《我与兰登书屋》中,出版商贝内特·瑟夫有好几处提到安·兰德,可见她当时在美国的非同凡响,瑟夫说,你不可能随便与她说话,因为她会抓住你的破绽,然后说:“我们来检验一下你的前提。”如果你是编辑想要说服她把文稿中重复的观...

Oh, I hate the word "WE"!!!! It's the worst word in the universe!!! Let God throw it in to hell and never let it rule the world!!! ---Thank you, Ayn Rand, it's you who made me hate the "WE" and support the “I”!
评分The book sucks.
评分...一口气看完了!真心好看哭了,看到最后几章震撼极了。个人主义和反乌托邦的精神被写的淋漓尽致。印象最深的是Golden One说的那句“We love you”,然后又随即说“No, this is not what we wish to say”然后像个孩子一样喃喃“We are alone, and love you alone”那里...Epiphany of the ego of mankind
评分A patriotic individualist who wearily debates with himself shall be relieved after reading this book.
