The Literary Art of Ayn Rand focuses on Rand as a writer: the brilliantly distinctive stylist, the master of aphorism and symbol, the apostle of essentialistic characterization, the rigorous integrator who insisted that all elements in a work serve a single theme, and the ingenious plotter who took pride in constructing her magnum opus as a "stunt" novel of mystery and misdirection.Now in one volume, nine essays by seven authors shed new light on the depth and complexity behind Rand's inspiring and entertaining writing. The contributors include:Kirsti Minsaas:"Structural Integration in The Fountainhead and Atlas Shrugged""The Visual Power of Ayn Rand's Fiction""The Stylization of Mind in Ayn Rand's Fiction."Mimi Reisel Gladstein:"Breakthroughs in Ayn Rand Literary Criticism"Nathaniel Branden:"The Literary Method of Ayn Rand"David Kelley:"The Code of the Creator"Stephen Cox:"The Literary Achievement of The Fountainhead""Anthem: An Appreciation"Peter Reidy:"Frank Lloyd Wright and Ayn Rand"William R Thomas:"Ayn Rand's Philosophical Stunt Novel" (about Atlas Shrugged)
