Download We the Living Audiobook

" Although its a bit too verbose in some parts, I really liked the historical connections it had with Soviet Russia. This is a great book if you want to go beyond the history books when it comes to communism in Russia. "

" Outstanding book set in the aftermath of the Soviet Revolution. Very much a character driven story as the plot centers primarily on the actions of the protagonists and how they fare in the ruins of Imperial Russia. Excellent example of a strong female main character that retains her femininity yet is decisive and thoughtful, not like the male characters with breasts that are so prevalent in modern literature. The descriptions of life in newly minted Soviet Russia are detailed and frightening and provide a powerful bridge to the past and to the future. If there is anything that I felt was lacking in the story it was the ending, but I understand what Rand wanted to accomplish so I can let it slide. Definitely an important read for the youth and adults of today. "

" Very moving book centered in Russia. A typical Ayn Rand - people struggling to be individuals in a society that doesn't support those ideals. "

" very much enjoying this one, despite not enjoying Fountainhead. "

" It was my first taste of Ayn Rand as well as a further investigation into communism. This book fueled my hair-brained ideas about pursuing advanced degrees in Russian literature. Need I say more? "

" We the Living is an insight into Ayn Rand as an author; her motivations, her politics, and her upbringing. As a lover of both Atlas Shrugged and The Fountainhead, I eagerly turned the pages of this book to learn more about Ayn Rand. It is hailed as the closest thing she wrote to an autobiography and is a heroing story of a free thinker living in Communist Russia. I found tremendous courage in the characters. "

" A great book to learn about the Russian society and communisim. Learnt a lot. "

" Nowhere near the level of The Fountainhead. It was either boring and tedious, or just flat out sad and depressing. Yet, still interesting to chart Ayn Rand's development as a writer, and much of it beautifully written. "

" I actually like this one more than her more famous books. "

" My favorite of all her books. "

" Interesting but heavy handed. "

" I wish that there were more authors who can convey so much through the work of fiction. "

" I read Atlas Shrugged years ago and quite liked it but this book seemed just like the other one. I tired of Ann Rand's philosophy. Has anyone else read much Ann Rand? "

" My favorite Ayn Rand novel. "

" Don't tell my Democrat friends and family. I loved this book. Ann Rand has greatly influenced me with this lovely novel. "

" Bleak as hell. "

" A really interesting look into life in Soviet Russia. However I thought the characters weren't believable and the story wasn't as engrossing as in her other novels. "

" Amazing. Couldn't put it down. Definitely read the series in order: 1) We the Living; 2) The Fountainhead; 3) Atlas Shrugged "

" Just finished this book and wow. I won't give a review now as it is late and I am tired and it would not do this book a severe injustice to do a half-assed review. I'll review it this week on my blog and as always post the link. Stay Booked! Happy Reading! "

" This is one of my favorite books and one that I frequently recommend to others. "
