Abstract

Review of the work Cântico by philosopher Ayn Rand.

The work portrays the hero's struggle to think and act freely, in conflict with an oppressive totalitarian government order. The author observes a growing trend of collectivist practices in the USA, and with Anthem, she warns of the need for a shift in this pattern. The book is a strong affirmation of freedom, surpassing other more famous anti-totalitarian novels, such as Brave New World (1932).
