Book Summary
Her first major literary success, Ayn Rands The Fountainhead is an exalted view of her Objectivist philosophy, portraying a visionary artist struggling against the dull, conformist dogma of his peers; a book of ambition, power, gold and love, published in Penguin Modern Classics.Architect Howard Roark is as unyielding as the granite he blasts to build with. Defying the conventions of the world around him, he embraces a battle over two decades against a double-dealing crew of rivals who will stop at nothing to bring him down. These include, perhaps most troublesome of all, the ambitious Dominique Francon, who may just prove to be Roarkes equal. This epic story of money, power and a mans struggle to succeed on his own terms is a paean to individualism and humanitys creative potential. First published in 1943, The Fountainhead introduced millions to Rands philosophy of Objectivism: an uncompromising defence of self-interest as the engine of progress, and a jubilant celebration of mans creative potential.Ayn Rand (1905-1982), born Alisa Rosenbaum in St. Petersburg, Russia, emigrated to America with her family in January 1926, never to return to her native land. Her novel The Fountainhead was published in 1943 and eventually became a bestseller. Still occasionally working as a screenwriter, Rand moved to New York City in 1951 and published Atlas Shrugged in 1957. Her novels espoused what came to be called Objectivism, a philosophy that champions capitalism and the pre-eminence of the individual. If you enjoued The Fountainhead, you might like Rands Atlas Shrugged, also available in Penguin Modern Classics.In The Fountainhead power, greed, lifes grandeur flow hot and red in thrilling descriptionsLondon Review of BooksAyn Rand is a writer of great power... she writes brilliantly, beautifully, bitterly The New York Times
