Ayn Rand at 100

NY Times: Considering the Last Romantic, Ayn Rand at 100. Interesting view that the heros Roark and Galt were so ill-suited for the democratic ideas she espoused. My interest in her books waned when I could not resolve her heros to the world. This column did make me think about the villains again. "But her villains have the best names, the most memorable quirks, the whiniest or most insinuating voices."
