Us An Them is a dystopian novella patterned after Ayn Rands novella, Anthem, but with a different view of where selfishness might lead. In addition to Anthem, Ayn Rands' works include The Fountainhead, The Virtues of Selfishness and Atlas Shrugged. Her "I" and "ego" forward objectivism philosophy are reflected in these and other of her works. Us An Them is meant to compliment her writing style (Including a title word play) but offers an option to her views.
This story is set in the distant future when watching out for one's self has created a society set up to give each legitimate citizen their time and opportunity on the planet. What more could one possibly ask for given the need to recover from the environmental devastation caused by billions of people carelessly going about their business over the centuries?
Sam is a recent graduate that looks and feels out of place in a city and society designed to give each legitimate their shot at life, but at what cost? He yearns for an alternative to the confines of constant light and surveillance. Can he break away from the repression without ruining life for the rest of his family?
And is there anything beyond the city walls other than darkness and jarring solitude? Sam explores personal relationships and tries to find his place when family circumstances threaten his very existence.

Store description
We first started out as “The Paperback Exchange,” a chain of physical bookstores where we would part exchange your beloved books for new stories to transport you to faraway places. However, as shopping started to evolve to online shops and marketplaces, we bid our stores goodbye to become “PBShop.” This transition has only allowed us to blossom as we now ship thousands of titles to book lovers across the globe. We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence. If this is your first visit or you are a returning customer, we would like to welcome you to the PBShop family, for there is no friend as loyal as a book. We are a company who put our customers at the centre of everything we do as we understand the importance of reading because once you learn to read, you will forever be free. There are a whole lot of things in this world of ours that we are yet to explore, which is why we will forever inspire curious minds.…
