The vehicle that drove Ayn Rands method objectivism in the book “The Anthem” are individualism‚ egoism‚ and independence.

I believe that Ayn Rand’s early and later life in Russia affected her in such a way that she was pushed to write Anthem. Ayn Rand‚ born in St. Petersburg‚ Russia lived through the Communist Revolution and saw the social change from words like ‘I’ to ‘We’ and ‘ Me’ to “Us”.

Anthem "To be free‚ a man must be free from his brothers." Individuality is one of the major themes through the book Anthem. Once people have individuality they never want to let it go. That is he one reason why the city council banned anything to do with being an individual.
