You should really read Fountain Head first. It will make a lot more sence

This is one of my favorite books. Having said that there are a couple of places in the book that it gets very long winded. This was Ayn Rand's culmination in her philosophy. If you want a lighter version read The Fountainhead and if you want an even lighter version of that Anthem, both by Ayn Rand. You can't go wrong with any of them.

I read that during my summer in between high school and college. I had nothing else and I was trying to write an essay based on it for a small scholarship. It’s a bear to make it all the way through. I wouldn’t have made it if I wasn’t really pushing through, wasn’t really enjoying it at the end just cramming through it. Good stuff in there, it started great for me, but I think it’s generally accepted it could have been 1/4 the length. Good luck!

#[1]​ has told me so many times to read it and now have some motivation with #[2]​ book club so trying to make this be the year it happens. It is definitely very daunting

It is an interesting read that I enjoyed. A lot of words.

I have my friend the paperback version I had. Later I decided to get the hardback too.

I own that copy also, but never have time to sit down and read so I bought it on audible as well and usually listen to it at least once a year. Fountainhead is also a good book, but haven’t been compelled to buy a physical copy of that like I did for Atlas Shrugged

I've only been able to read this book in audio form. It's a great book packed very densely with info. It really needs to be read more than once.

I've listened to it about 4 times now and each time I get something new out of it.
