    I wish you would have put that information in your question. Please always include such details when you ask a question.

    I was an English major, teacher, and worked in libraries for 30 years and have never heard of such breakdowns. Is this for a literature class? Do you have definitions for those terms?

    What is architechs fiction and individualism fiction? I know what a book is and psychological fiction.

    Can there be more than one answer?

    And you really read that horribly long, boring book?

    As far as I can guess (trying to figure out the choices), the only one that isn't correct is psychological fiction, and even then, a case could be made for it, I suppose. In other words, a case can be made for each one, so all are correct.

    It is a book. It is about architects. It is about individualism. It does have some psychological aspects to it.

    Does your teacher want you to be able support your choice?

    Do you agree that each one of those answers could be correct?
  • Aug 22, 2012, 02:01 PM
    margaret kornse
    Yes I do but which one

    An argument could be made for each one. There is no wrong answer. The most obvious answer is book. My choice would be individualism. Rand built a philosophy around that idea using this book and another one, and then went on to write more.
