“If you write a line of zeroes, it´s still nothing": Signet Edition of We the Living; Signed by Ayn Rand

Signet edition, later printing of Rand's debut novel. Duodecimo, original publisher’s pictorial wrappers. Boldly signed by Ayn Rand on the title page. In near fine condition with light creasing to the spine and rear panel.

We the Living details the heroine’s struggle for individualism under Soviet communism and is the most autobiographical of Rand’s novels, published ten years after she fled the Soviet Union for the United States. When the work was re-issued in 1959, Rand noted in the book’s forward that “for those readers who have expressed a personal curiousity about me, I want to say that We the Living is as near to an autobiography as I will ever write.”
