It is her longest novel, the fourth and final one published during her lifetime, and the one she considered her <i><a href="/wiki/Magnum_opus" class="mw-redirect" title="Magnum opus">magnum opus</a></i> in the realm of fiction writing.<sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTERand1997[httpsarchiveorgdetailsjournalsofaynran00aynrpage704mode2up_704]_1-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTERand1997[httpsarchiveorgdetailsjournalsofaynran00aynrpage704mode2up_704]-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> She described the theme of <i>Atlas Shrugged</i> as "the role of man's mind in existence" and it includes elements of <a href="/wiki/Science_fiction" title="Science fiction">science fiction</a>, <a href="/wiki/Mystery_fiction" title="Mystery fiction">mystery</a> and <a href="/wiki/Romance_novel" title="Romance novel">romance</a>. The book explores a number of philosophical themes from which Rand would subsequently develop <a href="/wiki/Objectivism" title="Objectivism">Objectivism</a>, including <a href="/wiki/Reason" title="Reason">reason</a>, <a href="/wiki/Property_rights_(economics)" title="Property rights (economics)">property rights</a>, <a href="/wiki/Individualism" title="Individualism">individualism</a>, <a href="/wiki/Libertarianism_in_the_United_States" title="Libertarianism in the United States">libertarianism</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Capitalism" title="Capitalism">capitalism</a>, and depicts what Rand saw as the failures of governmental coercion. Of Rand's works of fiction, it contains her most extensive statement of her philosophical system. </p><p>The book depicts a <a href="/wiki/Dystopia" title="Dystopia">dystopian</a> United States in which publicly traded companies suffer under increasingly burdensome laws and regulations. Railroad executive Dagny Taggart and her lover, steel magnate Hank Rearden, struggle against "looters" who want to exploit their productivity. They discover that a mysterious figure called <a href="/wiki/John_Galt" title="John Galt">John Galt</a> is persuading other business leaders to abandon their companies and disappear as a strike of productive individuals against the looters. The novel ends with the strikers planning to build a new capitalist society based on Galt's philosophy. </p><p><i>Atlas Shrugged</i> received largely negative reviews, but achieved enduring popularity and ongoing sales in the following decades. The novel has been cited as an influence on a variety of <a href="/wiki/Right-libertarianism" title="Right-libertarianism">libertarian</a> and <a href="/wiki/Conservative" class="mw-redirect" title="Conservative">conservative</a> thinkers and politicians. After several unsuccessful attempts to adapt the novel for film or television, <a href="/wiki/Atlas_Shrugged_(film_series)" title="Atlas Shrugged (film series)">a film trilogy</a> was released from 2011 to 2014 to negative reviews, and two theatrical adaptations have been staged. </p> <style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r886046785">.mw-parser-output .toclimit-2 .toclevel-1 ul,.mw-parser-output .toclimit-3 .toclevel-2 ul,.mw-parser-output .toclimit-4 .toclevel-3 ul,.mw-parser-output .toclimit-5 .toclevel-4 ul,.mw-parser-output .toclimit-6 .toclevel-5 ul,.mw-parser-output .toclimit-7 .toclevel-6 ul{display:none}</style><div class="toclimit-3"><meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Synopsis">Synopsis</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Atlas_Shrugged&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: Synopsis"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Setting">Setting</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Atlas_Shrugged&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Setting"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p><i>Atlas Shrugged</i> is set in a <a href="/wiki/Dystopia" title="Dystopia">dystopian</a> United States at an unspecified time, in which the country has a "National Legislature" instead of <a href="/wiki/United_States_Congress" title="United States Congress">Congress</a> and a "Head of State" instead of a <a href="/wiki/President_of_the_United_States" title="President of the United States">President</a>. The United States appears to be approaching an <a href="/wiki/Economic_collapse" title="Economic collapse">economic collapse</a>, with widespread shortages, business failures, and decreased productivity. Writer Edward Younkins said, "The story may be simultaneously described as anachronistic and timeless. The pattern of industrial organization appears to be that of the late 1800s—the mood seems to be close to that of the depression-era 1930s.
