Ayn Rand (1957) ‘Atlas Shrugged‘, US first edition, first printing, published by Random House.

Condition: a near fine copy in a near fine dust jacket which is one of the best we have ever seen. Slight shelf wear. Dust jacket is not price clipped, not faded, with slight rubbing to top edges as pictured. First state dust jacket with correct price of USD 6.95, and 10/57 on bottom corner as called for. A beautiful copy!

‘Atlas Shrugged’ is considered to be Rand’s magnum opus. Her fourth novel develops ‘objectivism’ to its fullest advocating capitalism, individualism and reason. Part philosophical, part romance, part science fiction. A landmark book!
