"Who is John Galt?" is the immortal question posed at the beginning of Ayn Rand's masterpiece. The answer is the astonishing story of a man who said he would stop the motor of the world ”and did. As passionate as it is profound, Atlas Shrugged is one of the most influential novels of our time. In it, Rand dramatizes the main tenets of Objectivism, her philosophy of rational selfishness. She explores the ramifications of her radical thinking in a world that penalizes human intelligence and integrity.

It was okay. The plot was boring for the most part and the characters were largely flat and one dimensional. It presents a strange, slightly sociopathic ideal of what it means to be the idea man. Some of the ideas I liked, I am not convinced this is as great a work as the objectivists feel, nor is it as atrocious as those who hate it portray it to be.
It is a strong critique at those who can't think for themselves and rely on others. It is also a strong critique at those who hate people who achieve great things. (

An awful, awful book; even more so when you consider how many people seem to treat it as a second, secular Gospel. Unlikable characters, terrible dialogue, and completely unworkable social philosophy... the list goes on and on. Since it is influential, it's helpful to read it, if only to understand the sheer level of nonsense that has to be accepted by Randites in order to make their ideas work. (
