Ayn Rand's first novel
I guess you could say I'm on an Ayn Rand kick lately...
Rand's first novel, We the Living, is "as near to an autobiography" as any of her work and sets the stage for her later masterpieces The Fountainhead and Atlas Shrugged.
We the Living is a shocking look at life under Soviet Communist rule told through the eyes of three individuals who demand the right to their own lives and to pursue their own happiness. Intense and sexually charged, the book offers a psychological perspective into Ayn Rand's unique world views.
And be sure to stay tuned because I'll be doing an entire show on the life and work of this controversial but intoxicating author.
