The Fountainhead !

Hey Friends,

Recently, ordered "The Fountainhead - by Ayn Rand."
Thanks to Flipkart, it reached its destination on time.

What a book ! Really, I have read many books on various categories. Fiction, Non fiction, Suspense, Self help, Romantic, Leadership etc. This one is different, special and intriguing.

This book makes your mind work. Every character portrayed in the story had a sense and perfection in style. They have their own signature. They allude to real life people we met and talked to. You can find Howard, Cameron etc, everyone, in your friend, teacher, boss, and even in yourselves.

The diction and story revealing capability is simply awe-inspiring. The usage of words, command over language left me agape. Such is the style of Ayn Rand.
This book got published in 1943 and still, even today, it is the bestseller in all major bookshops and digital book-houses.

She made a statement saying " The author shouldn't keep his/her contemporary needs in mind and make a work. It should be a statement for years." She kept to her word.

Really, my ideas to write a book grew stronger after reading this life changing book.  Yes, I will :-)

Cheers,
Kishan.
