I've read two of hers Atlas Shrugged, and the Fountainhead... interesting stuff...  Haven't read Anthem.


I'd reccomend. It's a nice short read (90 pages I think) and much more dystopian than her other works.


on the subject, my favorite book of hers was Fountainhead, although Atlas Shrugged is quite good, if not being a bit too redundant.


my nickname, well guess...

I play guitar for Opeth, my name is Peter Lindgren.  LOL


no offense to .. pyramid starter ahahha. but I think her message  is  crap and adaptations of them in practice have  put  the world in the position it's in now.. but I'm not going there  hahhaha.  We all see 'em differently

that said.. Fountainhead was a fabulous book. Read it many years ago and keep the copy.. I should read it again.

My nickname comes from my name (first name, that is). It's just the way I was saying it when I was a little baby. Smile
And if you ask what my name is, well of course, my name is Not Given. LOL

Magnus is my real name, this is propably the first place ever where I've been able to use it as my screenname Smile

I also tend to register in forums and such as 'Magnys' if magnus is already taken, as 'mag' are the three first letters of my first name and 'nys' the first three of my surname
