Ayn Rand

Ayn Rand — 3 titles in the rankings, first published between 1936 and 1943. They average 7.0, below the 7.8 the whole catalogue averages.

Editor’s note Novels written to carry her philosophy of individualism and laissez-faire capitalism, which she called Objectivism; readers tend to love them or reject them, and they rate low here overall. The Fountainhead, about an uncompromising architect, rates highest. Anthem, a short dystopian novella, is the quickest way to see her ideas. Atlas Shrugged (1957), her longest, rates lowest.
