Описание: Ayn Rand's first published novel, a timeless story that explores the struggles of the individual against the state in Soviet Russia. First published in 1936, We the Living portrays the impact of the Russian Revolution on three human beings who demand the right to live their own lives and pursue their own happiness. It tells of a young woman's passionate love, held like a fortress against the corrupting evil of a totalitarian state. We the Living is not a story of politics, but of the men and women who have to struggle for existence behind the Red banners and slogans. It is a picture of what those slogans do to human beings. What happens to the defiant ones? What happens to those who succumb? Against a vivid panorama of political revolution and personal revolt, Ayn Rand shows what the theory of socialism means in practice. Includes an Introduction and Afterword by Ayn Rand's Philosophical Heir, Leonard Peikoff

Описание:
The revolutionary literary vision that sowed the seeds of Objectivism, Ayn Rand's groundbreaking philosophy, and brought her immediate worldwide acclaim. This modern classic is the story of intransigent young architect Howard Roark, whose integrity was as unyielding as granite...of Dominique Francon, the exquisitely beautiful woman who loved Roark passionately, but married his worst enemy...and of the fanatic denunciation unleashed by an enraged society against a great creator. As fresh today as it was then, Rand's provocative novel presents one of the most challenging ideas in all of fiction--that man's ego is the fountainhead of human progress... "A writer of great power. She has a subtle and ingenious mind and the capacity of writing brilliantly, beautifully, bitterly...This is the only novel of ideas written by an American woman that I can recall."--The New York Times

Описание: Reminiscent of the early work of Jhumpa Lahiri, Ayelet Tsabari s award-winning debut collection of stories is global in scope yet intimate in feel, beautifully written, and emotionally powerful. From Israel to India to Canada, Tsabari s indelible characters grapple with love, violence, faith, the slipperiness of identity, and the challenges of balancing old traditions with modern times. These eleven spellbinding stories often focus on Israel s Mizrahi Jews, featuring mothers and children, soldiers and bohemians, lovers and best friends, all searching for their place in the world. In Tikkun, a man crosses paths with his free-spirited ex-girlfriend now a married Orthodox Jew and minutes later barely escapes tragedy. In Brit Milah, a mother travels from Israel to visit her daughter in Canada and is stunned by her grandson s upbringing. A young medic in the Israeli army bends the rules to potentially dangerous consequence in Casualties. After her mom passes away, a teenage girl comes to live with her aunt outside Tel Aviv and has her first experience with unrequited love in Say It Again, Say Something Else. And in the moving title story, two estranged sisters one whose marriage is ending, the other whose relationship is just beginning try to recapture the close bond they had as kids. Absorbing, tender, and sharply observed, "The Best Place on Earth" infuses moments of sorrow with small moments of grace: a boy composes poetry in a bomb shelter, an old photo helps a girl make sense of her mother s rootless past. Tsabari s voice is gentle yet wise, illuminating the burdens of history, the strength of the heart, and our universal desire to belong. Praise for "The Best Place on Earth" There s remarkable scope in Ayelet Tsabari s "The Best Place on Earth, " which interweaves stories of discrimination, loss, displacement, sex, death, religion, and a host of other issues. And yet, despite the range of viewpoints and the different facets of Israeli society explored, this is a collection that always stays intensely personal, the broader forces of history moving not merely across nations but within the souls of her beautifully conceived characters. Phil Klay, National Book Award winning author of "Redeployment" With incredible compassion and a delicate touch, Ayelet Tsabari explores the heartbreak inherent in forming bonds, whether with another person or with a whole country. "The Best Place on Earth, " a complicated love song to Israel, is a sure-footed and stunningly skillful debut. Shelly Oria, author of "New York 1, Tel Aviv 0" Powerful . . . brilliant . . . These stories . . . depict minorities so skillfully, with such a light and accurate touch. "The Daily Beast" Highly recommended . . . Compelling and compassionate; Tsabari s stories] speak out from the heart of Israeli society and experiences. . . . The stories of "The Best Place on Earth" leave you wishing they wouldn t end. "The Times of Israel " This short story collection is a fiction debut for Tsabari, but it demonstrates that she is already a talented storyteller. . . . Her writing has an immediacy and power that invites readers into her characters psyches. . . . Tsabari s characters will step off the page to captivate readers. " Publishers Weekly""
