Coincidence? You decide!
Mar. 25th, 2009 04:07 pmI have lived happily for many years without coming any closer to the works of Ayn Rand than by glimpsing many a vaguely Tamara de Lempicka-esque cover across a high school classroom, and now I trip over two recaps of Atlas Shrugged in two days. What's going on?
...oh. Rereading the intro to that first one, possibly Stephen Colbert is to blame?
(Incidentally, possibly my favourite part of the second review is the comments -- especially the one that goes "I know this book is boring for the first 400 pages, but nevertheless it is the GREATEST WORK OF LITERATURE OF ALL TIME and anybody who doesn't appreciate that is a stupid poopyhead!" And I cannot for the life of me figure out if the commenter is serious.)
