I hadn’t thought about it before but yes, it’s even in black and white! Maybe a splash of color here and there... the blue on Rearden metal... some intense red on Dagny’s lipstick... the brief orange glow of a cigarette... but otherwise stark, dark and mostly colorless.

I agree that when I think of AS's cities, they are all in black and white. The colorlessness of AS's setting perfectly depicts the mood liberals have created in dampening the human spirit. There's more of it happening in real time as well. ;(

Me too, with the black and white thing. It’s weird. Don’t know what it is about her style, but it seems to have that effect on a lot of people.

Yes. I should also have added that when there are those splashes of color, there's generally only one, and it's a vivid primary color. Again... like an illustration painted to draw the eye to one thing.

An exhausted, gray city inhabited by black-and-white people with only every now and then a flash of a bright red dress and all the heads turn.
