We the Living



Capitalism, pride, selfishness and objectivism is what drew me to Ayn Rand's books. I've read almost all of her novels, short stories and play along with her non fiction too. I guess I'm an Ayn Rand junkie. I read her for the thrill of knowing this idealistic society is unattainable and quite possibly terrible. But I read on...
I hadn't yet read "We the Living" and started it as my lunch break book. It's based in Russia and so far it's slow moving. I've been interrupted several times while reading it and getting distracted so it's quite possible I'm just not that into it yet. Though I still have hope that this will be a good one and comparable to her other works.
