Book Reviews of The Romantic Manifesto
Book Review: Philosophy of aesthetics or manual for Randroids? It's both
Summary: 3 Stars
Despite having some helpful things to say about literature and other forms of art, this collection of essays is in the end an extended "proof" that there's something wrong with you if you like any other authors (a) better than you like Ayn Rand or (b) better than Ayn Rand likes them. If you're a careful and critical reader, you'll find much food for thought here. But if you're not, this book will lead you to start judging all your friends' and acquaintances' "psycho-epistemologies" by their emotional responses to _The Fountainhead_ and _Atlas Shrugged_. Not Rand's best work; fortunately, she's interesting even at her worst.
