Title: Overblown and underwritten
Review: Hard to believe a book this long could be considered underwritten but in fact it is. Be warned this is not a narrative. it is forst and foremost Rand's philosphy in the form of a narrative.While the book explains, again and again and again, the principles behind Rand's Objectivism, basically every man for himself, it is woefully lacking in every other aspect of good writing. The characters are all one-dimensional, they are either really good or really bad. They do no speak like real people, their interactions with each other, especially the romantic interludes are worse than cheesy.This book could have been at least half the length if it weren't for the endless pages of speeches extolling Objectivism.Just research Rand's theories and save yourself a lot of hours.
