        I read The Fountainhead years ago for a high school assignment, so the details are a little fuzzy. The general story follows a young architect on his journey to find himself and his art in the growing and changing world of modern architecture. He works in a big firm in the city and must deal with the struggles of keeping a job and keeping his morals.

         This book celebrates individual genius and really kind of demonizes the collective. It posits that those with truly original ideas are often trodden upon by those that "play by the rules." I would bet that it is a sacred tome for libertarianism. Though I was not completely convinced, I was fascinated by the characters and ideas. My favorite scene is where the dejected brilliant sculptor has lost his will to sculpt and the brilliant architect comes into his dwelling and shakes him up "get ahold of yourself, man" style and convinces him not to give up hope. It's written so beautifully. Overall, the novel is definitely worth a read as it is very well done and fascinating. Just don't let it totally overwhelm your belief system.

         Fountainhead can be considered as one of the best work of Ayn Rand. In this book the main protagonist is a man named Howard Roark . He is a architect upholding his own virtues and sense of architecture in a world which has long been fascinated by men who dwells and worships men who based their architectural styles on the whimps and fancies of masses. 

         Howard Roark can be called what is known as a modern architect . He considers that like every person or eveything has its own sense likewise every buliding also has its own spirit and it must sereve its purpose and most importantly must be true to it.

         He is a lone man standing between people who despises any form of genius or individuality.

       Few can define "Belief" and mould it into characters with so much authority.  Although the book revolves around Howard, I think Gail Wynand's character was larger than life.
This is one of Ayn Rands better works.
