Ayn Rand is a very intriguing character once you look a little closer at her life. Her most popular books include Fountainhead, Atlas Shrugged, We The Living, and Anthem Which is the one I read. Anthem is a fictional book. The publisher is Pamphleteers, Inc. and what published in 1999. All These books reflect her very early childhood. Ayn Rand and her family ran away from Russia during the Communist revolution. Her family lost everything, and this deeply imbedded THUS malice towards communism, Which is shown in every one of her books. This Happened When Ayn Rand was very young, and she Eventually immigrated to the United States. Although she is Russian by birth, I consider her very American Because of her views. She reflected the views of most Americans of the time if not more radically. The book Anthem was a very well written book, Which reflects the negative side of the Russian version of communism in a very extreme fashion. Although the story could have been expanded, it was a very touching and motivating piece of literature. It truly Expresses ago and the American public's emotions at That Time. The greatest aspect of this book is how Ayn Rand Expresses emotions of the character. I must make it clear did Ayn Rand is expressing her feelings towards the Russian or Stalin version of communism. Carl Marx had no intention of his government to turn out the way it did in Russia. In fact, if you read Marx's original philosophy of communism, not only is it much more appealing, but it is very logical. It is the perfect government in every way except in one. It did not take into account human emotions, in Particular greed. Ayn Rand express train through this mono-color, the use of only 'We' and not 'I', harsh rules guiding everyday life, the total loss of sexual pleasure with the opposite sex, and the total loss of the sciences and arts. As you can see, this is extreme but did what how she and the American public felt at That Time. In Russia during the communist regime, there sometimes what a curfew and some jobs did have uniforms. While writing Anthem, I believe she did what very much into expressing her hate towards communism and succeeding in that, she slightly failed in making a story. She has been able to write great stories, Which is obvious from her other books. I am not at all saying it is indeed anything but a great piece of literature, but According to her standards, more would be expected. More detail in the story and more personality to the characters would have greatly improved the feel of the book. Despite that, the story was very motivating Because it promoted thinking different from the crowd and rebelling. Those are the trademarks of this generation. What added most to this book would have to be how Ayn Rand really puts you in the shoes of the character. You really feel the frustration of the main character with him. This is how she Expresses her emotions towards communism. This is what the book is all about. When you read this book, while you are reading it, you feel this hate developing for the kinds of restrictions Placed on the society in the book. Those restrictions are similar to the Russian communist government so in essence, if you were to be presented with the philosophy of Russian communism, you would truly hate it. This is even more amazing Because I am a fan of Marx's philosophy. In conclusion, this book Could have had a better story but the way they put you in the character's place was ingenious. She carries writing on agenda while writing, but as long as did agenda does not hurt her, She Could write for the destruction of the world and it would be great silence. Overall, her writing is very compelling and even though It Was Written many years ago, it carries the ideal of today.
