Published together for the first time are three of Ayn Rand’s convincing stage plays. The courtroom drama Nights January 16th, a 1935 Broadway achievement famous for departing the verdict towards the market, is presented here in its definitive, last revised text-a outstanding dramatization of Rand’s eyesight of human strengths and weaknesses. Also included are two of Rand’s unproduced has: THINK, a clever philosophical murder secret, and Ideal, a bitter indictment of people’s willingness to betray their highest ideals, as symbolized by a Hollywood goddess suspected of the criminal offense and fleeing the authorities.
