A Review of Gen LaGreca's Noble Vision

Noble Vision by Gen LaGreca is a contemporary novel in the Randian tradition, whose substance and style are perhaps the greatest reflection of the ideal of the founder of Objectivism since the latter's death in 1982. The characters are designed to carefully reflect their chosen value premises, while the plot is at the same time comprehensible and complex, logical and multifaceted, as LaGreca impeccably weaves numerous threads of the storyline throughout the book. Furthermore, this novel examines, using perceptively rational analysis, a critical contemporary issue which had only begun to emerge during Ayn Rand's time, the usurpation of medicine by encroaching government. By demonstrating the harms of such centralized control, LaGreca establishes herself as a fitting heiress to Rand's literary legacy, and one willing to extrapolate it to new issues and dilemmas.
