Review: Ayn Rand's philosophy in a capsule-sized story

"Anthem" is classic Ayn Rand.  It is a short story of an individual who escapes from the yoke of the parasitic masses by casting aside the chains that one can voluntarily wear in servitude and appeasement to those masses.  Although I'd never read "Anthem" before, I have read "Atlas Shrugged".  "Atlas Shrugged" should be the main course for any reader; "Anthem" is just a tasty appetizer.
