This review is part of Cannonball Read III. And yes, it may take a couple of tries to do it, but I swear that it’s worth it. It can be hard to separate the story that lives in The Fountainhead from the preaching that interrupts things. (See? It’s possible to get something of worth out of an Ayn Rand piece and not turn into a libertarian fuck-nutter) The very fact that these mediocre works were popular and being discussed with some modicum of respect made me wonder if there is a statue in America dedicated to “meh.” “Jersey Shore,” Auto-Tuned anything, Twilight, and “America’s Next Top Model”-I’ve ingested more than a few of these and never thought they were anything special.

Those are the real reasons to read this book the joy of watching the characters crash and spark each other makes the 694 pages a bit less of a chore. Knowing what the hell any of that means doesn’t matter when there is all the juicy drama to enjoy a rival architect with mommy issues and a severe lack of ideas (or spine), a ice princess who can only enjoy sex if she’s being raped, and a menacing newspaper columnist who appears to have his hand in everything. I promise this won’t hurt.Īyn Rand’s third novel tells the majestic (to read her hero-worship descriptions) tale of Howard Roark, an architect thrown out of school for not following style assignments and making modern-looking buildings when everyone else is still copying Early Colonial.
