Title: "Your Homework for Tonight Is..."
Review: A must-read for all high school students. ANTHEM presents the beauty and power of Rand's philosophy in an highly-accessible and intriguing story. I am reading it with my 9th grade English students for the first time, and it is holding their interest and challenging their world view. This novelette has taken the place of Steinbeck's OF MICE AND MEN in my curriculum. While beautifully written, Steinbeck's work carries a tone of hopelessness that already pervades my students' lives. ANTHEM uplifts their souls, challenging them to utilize their talents and be the masters of their fate. It is an important work that I will be sharing each year with my students.
