FOUNTAINHEAD - NAL-Dutton

When it was first published in 1943, The Fountainhead, Ayn Rand's daringly original literary vision and her groindbreaking philosophy. Objectivism, won immediate worldwide interest and acclaim. The instant classis is the story of an intransigent young architect, his violent battle against conventional standards, and his explosive love affair with a beautiful woman who struggles to defeat him. For this fiftiesth anniversary edition Rand's literary executor Leonard Peikoff, has written a special Afterword that includes excerpts from Anyn Rand's own notes on the making of The Fountainhead. As fresh today as it was then, here is a novel about a hero - and about those who try to destroy him.
