Another look at Ayn Rand, this time dwelling (reasonably) on her Russian roots and their literary impact on her books.

That said, I think Anthony Daniels misinterprets a number of the examples he quotes from her novels to make his point, namely that Rand was clever and perceptive but above all intolerable if not oppressive. She may well have been in real life, but the reasons he gives based on the books often do not work.

Still, worth a read for the Russian literary and psychological angles.
