Reviews"Reading this inspired little story is a rewarding and satisfying experience which no American should deny himself."- All-American Books, "Rand's dark portrait of the future was first released in England in 1938 and reedited for publication in the United States in 1946. This 50th-anniversary edition includes a scholarly introduction and a facsimile of the original British version, which bears Rand's handwritten alterations for its American debut."- Library Journal, "In her usage of the English language she combines clarity of expression with prose of poetic grace. Here, indeed, is an anthem-an anthem, not in the idiom of music, but in the more difficult medium of words alone. This is the most beautiful, the most inspiring novel this reviewer has ever read. It is an ethical and philosophical rather than a religious dedication to freedom and the individual."-Joan DeArmond, Fact Forum News, "Rand''s dark portrait of the future was first released in England in 1938 and reedited for publication in the United States in 1946.
