Atlas Shrugged topped The Week Magazine‘s Dec 19 list of “Best Books,” as chosen by Chuck Klosterman, a senior writer at Spin Magazine. His mini-review:
Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand (Signet, $9). People who are intellectual (but not necessarily smart) constantly insist that Rand?s philosophy is simplistic and flawed, and maybe it is; no philosophy is perfect. But she makes more sense than anyone else I?ve ever experienced. If you disagree with Atlas Shrugged, it basically means you disagree with the concept of ?being great.?
Heh. (Thanks to co_techie at LiveJournal for the tip. She also notes a significant reference to Atlas Shrugged in the Dec 30 episode of Judging Amy.)
