description: Originally appearing in the long out-of-print Who is Ayn Rand? , Nathaniel Branden’s updated essay illuminates the underlying principles of Rand’s “Romantic Realism.” With supporting examples from We The Living, Anthem, The Fountainhead, and Atlas Shrugged , Dr. Branden unravels Rand’s seamless integration of theme, plot, characterization, and style—and ultimately to her vision of life “as it might and ought to be.”
