Thanks for the info.

Wonder what “life lessons” that offers.

““Ideal” tells the story of a screen actress who is accused of murder and visits six of her most devoted fans to ask for help. In 1934, when she was in her late 20s, Rand first wrote “Ideal” as a work of fiction.”

FWIW I’ve read AS, The Fountainhead, and Anthem multiple times.

Do they all reject helping her because it isn't in their self interest?

“Atlas Shrugged” is, without doubt, my favorite book.

She was a bit of an a-hole narcissist in life, but she understood common human themes and portrayed them with great courage and imagination
