It's really not very good but every now and then she will say something striking or insightful.

I also find her unashamed cigarette-worship oddly endearing. What with this and the skyscrapers in Fountainhead . . . I mean, come on Ayn, everyone expects a degree of penis envy from jewish women, but aren't you overdoing it?

You didn't read it.

Not OP but I certainly didn’t and I own the piece of shit. How do I know it’s a piece of shit? I don’t, not really. Why do I own it? I’m sure you can guess.

You're a communist.
Anything that tells you to stop being a whiny, piece of shit, and do something productive with your life, is obviously going to offend you

Good guess, but no.

Read it in my teens like everyone else at the time. Extremely repetitive and longwinded. Strawmen everywhere. Just stupid.

the worst "acclaimed" book i ever read

I read it when I was young and dumb and recognized it as garbage over time. Was fun to burn however.

Francisco's speech about "money is the root of all evil" is the best thing she ever wrote

If you skip the boring political shit at the end you'll understand that this is the greatest Harlequin Romance of the 20th Century. It's the story of a strong woman's quest to find the man of her dreams and become his bang-maid. Truly great stuff.
