re: #62 OhNoZombies!

I’m sure I’m not the only person in the world who couldn’t get past the first chapter of Atlas Shrugged? I opened the book, and my eyes glazed over.

I read The Fountainhead a couple of times, but Atlas Shrugged was painfully overwrought and awful. I hated that book. By the time I got to John Galt’s 389568934756 page manifesto I’d given up on it and ended up selling it to Half-Price Books later.

My college-aged Ayn Rand phase mostly centered on her collections of political writing like The Virtue of Selfishness. Her novels are terrible.
