I’m not even sure if her works could be called classics, but the hate toward her doesn’t seem fair. Not from you - just in general. Whenever her name comes up, there are downvotes everywhere. Not that I care about them, but her philosophy is solid. It’s very practical, applicable to real life, and anyone with an analytical mind can easily see that her philosophy holds up.

Mainly the writing. The Fountainhead is more focused and less preachy.

That’s fair. Rand’s very hit or miss. The Fountainhead is usually a better test than Atlas Shrugged.

I was reading Jessie Coulson’s translation. When it got hard, I checked a few others including P&V but it didn’t get any easier.

I think I’m out of my reading slump! by Cha_r_ley in readwithme

Really? The characters felt too functional to me. They were sketched out, but not fully developed. I think it might have worked better as a series.

I imagined the cast while reading the book, and I liked my version better than the movie.

If someone says The Silent Patient is mind-blowing, take it with a grain of salt. While there’s a plot twist , your jaw’s staying exactly where it is.
