Ayn Rand’s first published novel, a timeless story thatexplores the struggles of the individual against the state in SovietRussia.
First published in 1936, We the Living portrays the impact of the Russian Revolution on three humanbeings who demand the right to live their own lives and pursue their ownhappiness. It tells of a young woman’s passionate love, held like a fortressagainst the corrupting evil of a totalitarian state.
We the Living is nota story of politics, but of the men and women who have to struggle forexistence behind the Red banners and slogans. It is a picture of what thoseslogans do to human beings. What happens to the defiant ones? What happens tothose who succumb?
Against a vivid panorama of political revolution and personal revolt, AynRand shows what the theory of socialism means in practice.
