I love books. Some day I'm going to have my own library.

What did you like about The Fountainhead? I have it on my list of books to pick up.

 The Fountainhead is great, imo better than Atlas Shrugs. 

The Fountainhead explores the place art has in a society and the the tragic beauty of the artist. 

So, if you're interested in artistry and its importance to a flourishing liberal society you'll likely enjoy it.

More books laying around the house, but the only one worth mentioning is Decline of the West by Oswald Spengler.

I lost a lot of my Russian lit after my last break up because it belonged to my ex's grandfather who was a Russian professor, mostly Dostoyevsky, Tolstoy, and Gogol. Currently letting a friend borrow Notes from the Underground because he's an alcoholic and I thought it'd be funny if he read it. 

My occult and magik related texts are currently located by the house alter. 

This one's for the Jews...
