Entry: Whittaker Chambers Versus Ayn Rand Link: http://www.takimag.com/blogs/article/whittaker_chambers_versus_ayn_rand#7752 Post contents: Interesting. All sorts of justly and unjustly famous works don't delve heavily into child-raising or the lives of children. How exactly is that a criticism of "Atlas Shrugged"? I suppose Rand didn't cover care for the elderly, pet euthanasia, or lust between same-sex people to any great extent either, and the intellectual response must be: So what? I've read "The Fountainhead" and "Anthem" but not "Atlas." With the kind of passion for and against it displayed above I'll have to put it on my reading list, albeit far down. Art is long and life is short, and all that. If I do read it, I'll have to follow Rin Tin Tin's example and doggedly persevere. Sent at: 2008 07 09
