"And each man kills the things he loves,
by all let this be heard,
some do it with a bitter look,
some with a flattering word,
the coward does it with a kiss,
the brave man with a sword "

I'm currently reading The Fountainhead.

Ayn Rand.

Somehow, I find it hard to get through the first few pages of AR's books.

(Although, they are well written. )

thank that you are not able to do that! Else you will find yourself in a delusional state after reading her books from which its hard to get out.

RS, Thats what people say. But I've been put off by her than being eluded by her whimsical ideologies. I don't regret reading "Fountainhead", I reserve my differences (which are aplenty). But once you go through first few pages of "Atlas Shrugged". You don't want to go through her "dragging" write-ups, coz' you know you'll be fazed by those rhetorics.

t4l,

Haan those rhetorics

but when I was around 17/18 i was fascinated by them for sure

Definitely Dragging if i think of them now

Finished reading Robin Cook's 'Critical'.( More interesting than his 'Crisis'.) Very fast-paced, action drama with nail-biting suspense. The crimes dealt with sent a shiver down my spine!

My next book is Ayn Rand's 'Fountainhead'! The posts in the exclusive thread for the novel has highly raised my expectations! Even before I was aware of that thread I came across a raving review about it in another site kindling my curiosity to a great extent. I asked my dil to get the book for me. The voluminous novel, the small,packed print made me keep it in reserve- to take when I am starved for something to read which I am particularly not at present. Sort of busy times at homefront. Those were young years when I burnt midnight oil to complete a volume!!! Now a game of infinite patience or scrabble in the computer & browsing seem more pleasing! Besides the English daily & a couple of vernacular weeklies I am becoming lazy to read!!!
