Published together for the first time, here are Ayn Rand's
three compelling stage plays. Written in 1933, and a
Broadway success in 1935, Night of January 16th is
presented here in its definitive, final revised text- a
superb dramatic objectification of Ayn Rand's vision of
human strength and weakness, a play famous for the author's
refusal to prearrange a dramatized verdict, leaving the
solution to the audience. Also included are two of Rand's
unproduced plays:Think Twice(1939), a philosophical
murder mystery, and Ideal(1934), the author's bitter
indictment of people's willingness to betray their highest
values, symbolized by a Hollywood goddess seemingly fleeing
the authorities.
