About This Novel
In the novel, Ayn Rand fictionalized a society in which people did not have their own names and were only distinguished by a slogan and a string of numbers. People did not even know the word "I". Whenever the concept of "I" was meant to be expressed, the plural "we" was used instead. A man named "Equality 7-2521" always had a strong vision of pursuing the truth, but was assigned to be a "scavenger" throughout his life; but still, with his keen awareness of the unknown, he finally found the unspeakable word of the unmentionable era - "I". He used this word to say "I love you" to the name "Freedom 5-3000" that made him tremble. Ayn Rand used the novel "One Person" to pay tribute to a sacred word-self, and every glorious individual who practices his own spirit throughout his life!
