Ayn Rand Anthem Analysis

In the book Anthem by Ayn Rand, there are a bunch of different buildings for different types of people. Like, The City of the Damned, the City Theater, the Home of the scholars, Home of the useless, and more. Each one has its own function that focuses on one specific thing.
Home of the infants, this is where they lived for the first 5 years of their lives. “The sleeping halls walls were white and clean and bare of all things save one hundred beds (Rand,20).” So the building was very plain and didn’t have like any toys or and diversity.
Home of the Students, this is where they are for 10 years of schooling. “Men must learn until they reach their fifteenth year. Then they go to work (Rand,20).”
He wished to be sent to the Home of the Scholars.

This is where special people went to do further research and make advancements to humanity. “We wished to be sent to the Home of the Scholars. We wished it so much that our hands trembled under the blankets in the night (Rand,24)
The Home of the Street Sweepers is where Equality goes after he is done with his schooling. “It is a grey house on a narrow street. There is a sundial in its courtyard, by which the Council of the Home can tell the hours of the day and ring the bell (Rand,28)
The Home of the Useless is for people over forty. “At forty they are worn out…. The Old Ones do not work, for the state takes care of them (Rand,30).” The old ones sit in the sun when it’s summer time, and by the fire when its cold out. They rarely talk, because they know they will die soon. It is a miracle when they make it to forty five, they are then considered The Ancient Ones.
