商品簡介
Gladstein, a Rand and Steinbeck scholar, as well as an associate dean of liberal arts at the University of Texas, El Paso, links the biography of the high-priestess of individualism to the development of her ideas, provides a history of Atlas Shrugged's critical reception, and proceeds to an in-depth literary analysis with plot summary, readings of every major character, a survey of themes, and discussion of the novel's genre-crossing into sci-fi, mystery, and Arthurian romance. A brief chronology and adequate bibliography is included. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
