The Fountain Head

I have just completed the first 400 pages of the book. And my reaction---its the bible !!!

When you asked someone for a short little synopsis of the Fountainhead, they without exception respond the same, dumbfounded looks, vague half sentences, stammering, and finally after gasps for air and grunts they are able to articulate "you just have to read it to understand"





Unlike the sidney shieldon's books the plots are very simple . It doesnt preach you whats right or wrong..Leaves the readers to form their own opinion on the given cases.

The way the young architect thinks about his work is awesome. The love in his subjects and his rigid attitude makes him look weird.

There's no argument that it's a well written complex piece of literature. The development of people and personality types, social patterns is intricate and stunning.

A perfect philosophical book !!!
