Fountainhead

by Ayn Rand

About this title: Ayn Rand's bestseller tells the story of a staunchly individualist architect (based on Frank Lloyd Wright) who combats the collectivist (i.e., mediocre) impulses of his fellow Americans. The book is both a compulsively readable, steamy novel and an articulation of Rand's views.

Note: This is a general synopsis. Each listing is described below.

It 's a must read, Jun 18, 2009
By nluna, Los Alamitos, CA

"This is a book that has an excellent command of language. It is the type of book which a reader will read over and over--including me. The characters are as up to date today as when the book was written."

Great book, May 14, 2009
By janis6west, Mesa, AZ

"This book was good. I ordered it after I watched the movie about Ayn Rand's life. I also watched the movie The Fountainhead. The book was different than most but good reading."

Wright and Wrong, Jul 10, 2008
By PubliusMinor, Portland, ME

"I am working my way through the works of Ayn Rand, an author who was mentioned in hushed, scandalized tones when I was a young man...certainly not the kind of book allowed in school libraries. Now that I am a high school teacher, I wish Rand's works were more widely read because of her belief in individualism. The Fountainhead is the story of an uncompromising young architect who sets himself against the establishment, celebrating functional design over slavish imitation and empty ornamentation. The plot is a bit like a Greek tragedy in which the hero's strengths are his greatest liabilities. Roark's refusal to submit to groupthink threatens lesser men who try to destroy him. They fail in part because he is as immune to external condemnation as he is to others' praise. His faith in the rightness of his work is its own reward. Predictable at times, perhaps a bit long, a very good book that makes important points and misses real greatness by very little."

Jun 9, 2008
By Eveline, Minneapolis, MN

"A book that was difficult to read. From the first pages I disliked all the characters. The supposedly kind characters are portrayed as pushovers and wimps, so equally unfavorable. Rand tries to make you believe that the hero of her story is to be admired. The more characters were introduced the more unlikable and extreme Rand's Objectivism shines through like a dark light. What an obnoxious world she is revering in this story. That is perhaps too unkind. (not that any of Rand's fans would care) I realize I'm not able to understand complete solitude and total disregard for relationships and the importance of community and 'feelings' that connect people together."
