    I consider that to be a wishful revisionism on her part. The truth is shes just a bad writer.

    The charactors in her first book “Anthem” are exactly as wooden and fake as the charactors in “Atlas shrugged.” She never developed any finesse or depth because real people aren’t as shallow as the imaginary people she dreamt about.

      The Fountainhead too. Howard Roark was just a cardboard cutout with a bunch of notes pinned to it.
