The narrative of uncompromising young architect Howard Roark, whose integrity was as hard as granite, is told in this modern classic. Dominique Francon, the stunningly beautiful woman who had a strong love for Roark but wed his fiercest enemy, as well as the fanatical denunciation of a great artist that an incensed society had unleashed. Rand’s intriguing book delivers one of the most difficult concepts in all of fiction: that man’s ego is the source of human development. This thesis is just as relevant today as it was back then.
