Book Description

Publication Date: March 1, 2000

While many people read novels for the pleasure of following a good story, works of literature also offer riches in their use of language, detail, form and context. Using excerpts from Ayn Rand's The Fountainhead and Atlas Shrugged, Dr. McCloskey demonstrates how these elements cooperate with plot, characterization, and theme to express a novel's many lawyers of meaning.
