Description

About the Book

The Fountainhead is a novel written by Russian-American author Ayn Rand. Howard Roark, the novel's protagonist is an individualistic young architect who designs modernist buildings and refuses to compromise with an architectural establishment that is not willing to accept innovation. Roark embodies what Rand believed to be the ideal man, and his struggle reflects Rand's belief that individualism is superior to collectivism.

Indescribable

Not very often do you come across a book, so enigmatic that it makes the other work of art fade into the hindsight. I am yet to read something as immaculate as The Fountainhead. I am yet to see a character as heartbreakingly honest as Howard Roark. I salute the lady who thought light years ahead of her time. A book that changed the world for the better. A world wherein people of fibre still exist!!

Brilliant

A wonderful book. It is great to know that such a person like Howard Roark existed at least in the imagination. A spectacular portrayal of the the characters and their stories. You'll may not see a building the same way again after finishing this book. This is a story of a Hero. A keeper for sure. My personal 'the best book ever'. A brilliant piece. I go back to reading this book again and again and derive great joy in doing so every time.

Read second time recently... simply brilliant.

First time I read this gem was almost a decade back. two weeks back, it was second turn. This is not very easy for weak hearted people. I remember one of my co-worker in Florida where he read the book and later after a year was scolding that because this book had so much influence on him, he retracted his personal relation and only focused on work resulting in poor appraisal and poor recognition in project.

well I can just laugh at that kinds of foolish conclusion. It ask you to believe in y...

Does the job

Review is ONLY for the quality of the publishing NOT the content of the book:

Its a great book by an original penguin publishing in paperback. I wouldn't have minded paying a few extra hundred rupees for a better quality publish than this. The pages are almost see-through and quality of paper is mediocre. Expected better from penguin. In future, might go with the American plume publishers which is pricier but worth the pennies for the collection.

Also, a bookmark could have been included ...

The novel is amazing but this is my review about the book.The book is a bit small in length but thick.This makes it a little difficult to keep it open especially in the beginnings.You have to apply a little bit of pressure to keep the book open so if you are planning to read it in a single go, it's going to be tough on your wrists and you are not going to feel very comfortable reading.
So my opinion would be to go for hardcover book for reading.Anyway you are going to love the book and plan o...
