Broadway World Ayn Rand Institute  |Atlas Shrugged  |Night of January 16th  |The Fountainhead  |Personal life  | Idealwas written in 1934, during a time of great professional turmoil in Rand’s life. At the time, her novel We the Living was rejected by a succession of publishers for being “too intellectual” and too opposed to Soviet Russia; her play Night of January 16th had not yet found a producer; and Miss Rand’s meager savings were running out. Ideal was written originally as a novelette and then extensively revised and turned into a stage play.   Published: 2010-06-01
