Jesus Christ it is a heavy reading. I am only 50 pages in and I find myself battling against my closing eyes.

I think it takes a while to warm up. But well worth reading.

It's fucking awful.

I don't think it's a matter of warming up. I am reading it in english (not my first language) after a whole day of work and workout. My brain is asking me to give up for the day 😂

You didn't like it?

As far as reading it, as a piece of literature, it was horrible.

About Randian Objectivism, for a long time I thought as an anarchist it wasn't for me, but lately I've started to change a bit.

Rand was right in many of her assertions, but I still find contradictions in others, from herself and from her "heirs", like Yaron Brook.

However, she was mainly right in that her Objectivism is at least an attempt at a philosophical foundation for individual freedom, from which an economic and political system should emanate, not the other way around like most "libertarian" academics seem to derive.

I'll express my opinion when I'll reach at least 1\3 of the book. So far it is very descriptive and immersive, no philosophy yet.

Italiano o inglese?

Inglese 😮‍💨

Non so se ci sia in questo caso - dubito - però a volte libri “ostici” li ho portati a casa usando gli audiolibri.

Sai che non ho mai ascoltato un audiolibro? Hai qualche suggerimento di dove trovarli?

Cerca “Audiolibri” su Telegram… il processo del download è un po’ laborioso ma alla fine dovresti farcela
