Reading Ayn Rand in my early adult years helped form my world view. I’ve mentioned her works to the younger folks in the family with mixed results, usually more of smile and a nod to this old guy.
I saw this copy mentioned in a tweet from the Atlas Society, and thought, deviously, I bet the kids would read this just because it’s a ‘graphic novel’.
Well like flies to honey, several young ones have been introduced to thinking about their political choices. I felt Atlas shrug.

Thrilling, thought-provoking story. Faithful graphic adaptation.
Imagine a world where there is no "I", where everyone speaks only of "we", where all concern with one's own happiness is forbidden. A grey, joyless, duty-filled world. Now imagine a man, raised in this society, who has always had trouble fitting in, a man who begins a quest to discover the hidden glories of an age that went before, the Unmentionable Times. This is the world of Anthem, Ayn Rand's classic vision of a dystopian future. This is a very faithful adaptation in graphic novel form, full of dramatic and heroic drawings of our hero, the young woman he loves, and the villains he struggles to understand. This was the first work of Ayn Rand's that I ever read, and I think that for most readers it remains the best introduction to her vision of what life should be.

The quality of the adaptation is good. Drawings are great. But, the quality of this book is just deplorable. It fell apart from the binding during the first reading. It is not salvageable, I'm afraid.
