Anthem

Anthem by Ayn Rand is a book about Equality. No, not equality as in sameness in state or continued course; evenness; uniformity but Equality 7-2527. Equality is in a community where everything is chosen for him. He does not decide when he eats, what he eats, or what job he has. He wants to change his community and give everyone choices.

He somehow he realized that there was more out there and he was missing it and so was the rest of his community. Equality is the hope for his community.


Although this story is about oppression towards the people but it is a story of hope and liberation. How? Well, if Equality were not in the story then the citizens would be desperate and lost. However, because of Equality they can have hope for the future that their lives will get better.
