Overview

In a dark future, where the word “I” is forbidden, a young man named Equality 7-2521 dares to rebel against the collectivist tyranny that rules his society. He discovers a hidden tunnel where he conducts scientific experiments and invents a device that can harness the power of electricity. He also falls in love with a beautiful woman who shares his spirit of independence. Together, they escape from the city and seek a new life of freedom and happiness. But they must face the wrath of the World Council of Scholars, who see their invention as a threat to their authority and their vision of the world. Anthem is a powerful and inspiring story of individualism, courage, and the human potential to overcome oppression. It is a masterpiece of dystopian literature by one of the most influential thinkers of the 20th century.
