I really completed the book at 3:00 a.m. Monday morn ing. That, without doubt, is one of the best books that I've ever read and absolutely no doubt that it is one of the longest. If not the. The length is one of the complaints com-plaints that I have against the complete story. Until page 550 there was absolutely nothing but pure thought stimulation and enjoyment. en-joyment. From page 550 to 1084 I had to fight sleep every word of the way and sometimes boredom! I Miss Rand has a very definite philosophy of life and it seemed to me she had every character repeating it over and over to the point of boredom. bore-dom. It was as if she were saying to me "Look, you little peon. If I don't repeat this over and over, youH never get what I mean". (1 did, though.) Anyway, it's quite a book. I surely recommend it to those who can completely remove them- selves from cries of "Mama" and ."What's to eat?" and "Aren't you through with THAT book yet?" Miss Rand expresses her philosophy philoso-phy beautifully and long. I think she is an idealist. To her the world would be ideal without rules and regulations. So, one by one she has leading industrialists of the nation slip a-way a-way and create their ideal world in a hidden valley until everything comes to a complete standstill and the nation is in complete chaos. So, what happens when they get to this ideal valley? These industrialists indus-trialists who so fervently believe that a person's worth shows in the results of his efforts? She sets up new rules and regulations regu-lations for them. The one that struck me the most forceful was the rule that money made in this . , , .... t -J c ,"H De spel e outside world.
