A novel about the dangers of surrendering one’s individuality in service of society, Anthem takes place in a dystopian future in which people are assigned jobs by the government and executed if they dare to claim ideas, hopes, and dreams as their own. Anthem explores the theme of freedom and exemplifies the classic conflict of an individual versus society. This Touchstone is based on Rand’s 1938 edition of Anthem.
