‎Ayn Rand‎
‎Atlas Shrugged, Folio Society‎

‎London, The Folio Society, 2018 [1957]. First and only Folio Society edition. 3 fine hardbacks books. No inscriptions or bookplates. Very Good+ slipcase with almost no defects (a small dent and a bump almost impossible to see). Introduced by Michael Dirda. All volumes are bound and blocked in metallic textured paper. Set in Warnock with Birch display, printed on Abbey wove paper. 1,576 pages in total. Frontispiece and 4 colour illustrations per volume. Blocked slipcase. 9.5" x 6.25". Both hugely influential and deeply controversial, Ayn Rand's Atlas Shrugged remains a vital read for anyone seeking to understand the current state of global politics. With stunning illustrations by Anna and Elena Balbusso. 'There are two sides to every issue: One side is right and the other is wrong, but the middle is always evil.' So states Rand's hero, John Galt, and it's a pronouncement that could be seen to sum up a great deal about Atlas Shrugged, both in terms of the book's unapologetic pursuit of a singular philosophy, and how it has polarized readers since its publication.‎
