Ayn Rand was an American novelist, philosopher, playwright, and
screenwriter. She is known for her two best-selling novels, The
Fountainhead and Atlas Shrugged, and for developing a philosophical
system known as Objectivism.In the 1930s, Rand was asked to adapt
her first novel, We the Living, for the theatre. We the Living is a
story of life in post-revolutionary Russia and Rand's first
statement against communism. It was not a commercial success when
it was published, but has gone on to sell over 3 million copies.
The first substantial fiction of Rand to appear in over twenty
years, this important volume contains two never-before published
versions of the play - the first and last versions (the latter
entitled The Unconquered). With a preface that places the work in
its historical and political context, an essay on the history of
the theatrical adaptation by Jeff Britting, the curator of the Ayn
Rand Archives, and two alternative endings, this book is a
must-have for anyone interested in Rand's philosophy.
