I think I must be the only person ever who read Atlas Shrugged and thought it was a very entertaining book, but didn't either love it or hate it because of the politics.
Is there anyone else out there who just loves the book like I do without applying the politics in real life?
- rdouble 13y agoAs the book is so poorly written, those who enjoy it as literature are indeed in a small club.
- trimbo 13y agoHeh. More along the lines of a good story. Though I have to admit, I had to skim John Galt's 50 page monologue.
- scarmig 13y agoAs a writer, Rand gets better as she gets shorter. I'd say she never gets to the point where she could be called a good writer, but she does sometimes reach for and achieve passable.
- gnaritas 13y agoShe's a bad writer who tells bad stories with unrealistic and poorly written characters. The politics are the only reason the book is read by anyone rather than forgotten as bad writing as they should have been.
