Anthem


This is one of those books that you base your life values on. I have never been moved by a piece of literature like this one, and I think that everyone should read it. It was recommended to me by two very important people in my Jr. High School career upon my graduation from Sr. High.
It depicts an Earth that has been torn apart, and that all people are considered one body, mind and soul. There is no love, no progress, and no sense of individuality. The words I, me, and mine have been eradicated, but one man speaks out against this, and becomes an individual. He saves himself.
This is a celebration of the individual. A concept that should never be lost.
