I know Rand was shite, but does this book have any literary value? Should I read it? If I read it, will I develop autism?

yes

Read We The Living and then everything else.
The "Ayn Rand is shite" it's just a meme made by dirty reds and leftards.

no

yes, it's a beach book like Sidney Sheldon or Jackie Collins
>If I read it, will I develop autism?
libertarians are willfully immature, not autistic
at some point this board will only be e-celeb self-promotion and automated Rand and King 1 post by this ID threads

Rand never considered herself a libertarian, she was absolutely autistic. Proto-weapononized autist.

read the romantic manifesto if you want to know what rand's deal was, and use the fountainhead as a supplement
from what I read, Rand seems genuinely interested in holding human value to a higher standard, which is a subject that you should be interested in, becaise it involves you. And whether the message is conveyed properly or is even correct will be up to you, but there's a chance that you find something that's never occurred to you before.
I loved this book. Its not a bible, or a manual. Treat it like a pulp fiction novel. A bunch of different types of badass characters, driven by different motives, interacting with each other. One of my favorite books, just such a fun read.

She was just being (understandably) territorial and possessive. Everyone objects to libertarians on aesthetic grounds but she had no right to complain there as she was the original unfuckable arrogant nerd who denied compensating for it.

she had a husband, though, who she exchanged her wealth for sex with, and based on her system of thought she wouldn't have wanted it any other way.
