Ayn Rand's fountainhead, by a fat mile. I was young and didn't know better
I listened to Atlas Shrugged as an audio book and it was ok at best. One massive criticism of communism and how it doesn't work but suggested anarchist society as the solution. Weird rape-y sex scene in the middle also. Should have stuck with the social criticism instead of anarco capitalism utopia stuff and it'd have been good.
God, me too. I thought I was too dumb to "get it".
