DESCRIPTION +

yn Rand’s The Fountainhead is a monumental work of fiction that explores the struggle of individualism against conformity. Published in 1943, the novel follows the journey of Howard Roark, an uncompromising young architect who defies societal norms to pursue his vision of modernist design. Roark’s battles with traditionalists, his passionate relationships, and his unwavering commitment to his ideals make him a symbol of Rand’s philosophy of Objectivism. The book examines themes of creativity, ambition, integrity, and the power of self-reliance, presenting a bold challenge to the collectivist ethos of its time.

About the Author

Ayn Rand (1905–1982) was a Russian-American writer and philosopher known for her distinctive philosophical system, Objectivism. Born in St. Petersburg, Russia, Rand emigrated to the United States in 1926, seeking freedom and opportunity. She achieved fame with her novels The Fountainhead and Atlas Shrugged, both of which advocate for individualism and the pursuit of personal happiness as the highest moral aim. Rand's works have inspired fervent admiration and debate, influencing political, economic, and cultural discussions. Beyond her novels, Rand wrote essays and lectures on philosophy, economics, and ethics, solidifying her legacy as a polarizing yet impactful thinker.
