There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old’s life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged. One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world. The other, of course, involves orcs." They're pretentious, trumped up vehicles for Rand to deliver her joke philosophy of Objectivism <cite>Ampelas posted [p:877724094] in The Founta...

Polycosm 04/23/17 6:37:15 AM #9:	The Fountainhead is better literature. It moves at a much faster pace and the shifting perspectives in each of the novel's major acts makes for an interesting read. Atlas Shrugged is better philosophy. Comparatively, The Fountainhead is almost incoherent and represents Rand's struggle to break from Nietzscheism. --- Thanks, DpObliVion, for casting my 2015 contest guru bracket into the pits of oblivion.

Doom_Art 04/23/17 7:36:01 AM #12:	Now in my experience, the pages from Fountainhead tear out easier, but you get a nice flame from lighting up Atlas Shrugged. So it's simply a matter of what you're looking for. Do you want to simply destroy the books, or burn them? --- Not removing this until Mega Man 64 is released on the Wii Virtual Console.

UnfairRepresent 04/23/17 7:47:12 AM #15:	I'd say Atlas Shrugged, there's a reason why it's so remembered and The Fountainhead is not.

_tippy_ 04/23/17 7:55:44 AM #16:	Fountainhead was probably a better novel. In Atlas Shrugged, her philosophy is front and centre with every other element being pushed aside, which makes it tedious to read. <cite>_tippy_ posted [p:877733639] in The Founta...
