"Atlas Shrugged stretches the boundaries further than any book you have ever read."
Yes, just like a certain goat-URLed website that used to feature a man "stretching his boundary" farther than seemed possible...
- aluhut 12y agoThe first book I wasn't able to finish. The mix of stupidity, contradictions, overstretched scenery, cringe worthy glorifications, weird ideology, stupid characters and the unbelievably slow progress were just too much. I plan to finish it some day...when I'm already depressed maybe. I would like to understand what people see in this...thing.
- jordanpg 12y agoAtlas Shrugged is many things, but it doesn't look or act like sci-fi by any measure. This choice stands out like sore thumb and compromises the integrity of the list for the obvious reasons.
- demachina 12y agoI cringed most of the way through Atlas Shrugged when I first read it. Having encountered more than my share of bureaucrats , inept big corporations and NGO's since, I can say she did have some valid points. The world is full of people who survive by sucking the blood out of the doers. It is nuts putting it on a sci-fi list, its more a political screed.
