A woman on trial where the jury is selected from the audience, it has two alternate endings. At first I found it as bland as Anthem, which I didn't even bother reviewing, but past the first act is just goes and never stops, full of nice twists and turns, I wasn't sure whether she was guilty or not in the end. I'd like to believe not.

Karen, she's pretty much the same as Dagny and Dominique, but I can't help but love her anyway. Her calm, cool manner is so beautiful, so ironic over such a rich soul, I think she's a lot like me, which one can take as one would like to.

The introduction. Rand gets bland and whiny, probably best to just skip it, it also has spoilers.

Nothing in particular. I really wanted to see the play, or, rather, to play the part of Karen, its just a role that I'd love to do. Or just be in the jury.

Nothing in particular, and urge to go to the theatre, but I get that from any play.

Has some damn good novels, check them out, I've reviewed them. Don't bother with Anthem unless you want a nice quick read (two hours for me), but the other two big ones are great.

It's just fun to read. Even if you hate Rand's philosophy, just read the play for the interesting audience jury ploy and the plot itself, Rand is good at dialogue and this lets her shine.

It's just a fun light read, hating it would be a waste of time, so I can't not recommend it.



Oh, wait, not for too young of people, has that racier side that Rand is brilliant at. Not so bad for our time, but some things should just be kept for the teenage and up sect.

Nothing much to it, it took two hours for me to read this but it was a nice two hours, I would recommend this highly to anyone seeking a light read, best to check out of the library, though, I don't see myself rereading this too often.
