I’m well into the book right now.
It took a while to get going but I forced myself.
Glad I did because there are gems of wisdom in the book.
A lot of fluff and then a passage hits you. Wow, change the name of the gov agency to EPA or some other and it fits today.
Fountainhead? I got to around page 3 and called it quits. Seem to remember a naked man standing on the edge of a ravine.
Don't give up so early... and you might want to skip the sex scene when Howard is fixing Dominique's fireplace. Ayn has some issues.
If you are interested, the order in which Ayn's four novels should be read is We the Living then Fountainhead then Atlas Shrugged and finish with Anthem. Each novel builds on the theme.

I just finished listening to the Audio version - 45 CDs - and I couldn’t fast forward (as one could skim in the paper version) in case I missed one of the critical passages. Some of her preaching was excruciating, but the message was chilling.
Since listening to current news, and reading current news, was interspersed with this marathon of CDs, I was truly ill by the comparison of what the Obama regime is attempting and what Ayn Rand described over 50 years ago.
Chilling! The more people feel ‘entitled’ to life without effort, the more our civilization will be destroyed.
