Another “must” read: “Anthem” by Ayn Rand....
I am SICK AND TIRED of being blamed for everything that is wrong in the world, just because I’m white, work hard, earn a good living and have more than others.
I read both books as a teenager. I liked “Anthem” but did not think it was possible. Now, about half of it has been incorporated.
When I finished “1984” the ending was so shattering (Room 101) that I didn’t really sleep that night.
I also was able to buy a radio dramatization (about 1956), CBS, of the novel. It was good.
