The Literary Art of Ayn Rand:

The Literary Art of Ayn Rand focuses on Rand as a the brilliantly distinctive stylist, the master of aphorism and symbol, the apostle of essentialistic characterization, the rigorous integrator who insisted that all elements in a work serve a single theme, and the ingenious plotter who took pride in constructing her magnum opus as a "stunt" novel of mystery and misdirection.Now in one volume, nine essays by seven authors shed new light on the depth and complexity behind Rand's inspiring and entertaining writing.
