If you have an iPad, you will soon be able to download an app with the full text of the Atlas Shrugged novel and rare photos from the Ayn Rand Archive. From an announcement in The Wall Street Journal:
Penguin Group will launch a new iPad app of Ayn Rand’s 1957 novel, “Atlas Shrugged,” combining the unabridged text and rarely seen photos from Ayn Rand’s archives.
The app, which will be made available on iTunes starting tomorrow, will include videos and audio lectures given by Rand, original manuscript notes, an illustrated timeline of Rand’s life, and other features.
The accompanying slideshow has some interesting photos, including a photo of Rand “in costume” that is quite sensual and exalted — it reminds me of a scene from one of her novels or short stories.
Thanks to reader Leon Brozyna for the tip.
