>I don't give a shit about Keating and Dominique, the dialog is generally bad and unrealistic, specially during "love" and drama scenes

Rand was an emotionally & sexually repressed woman who smoked. I don't think she "got" real-life at all. Her work reflects the mindset of such a person.

I wouldn't be surprised if you make yourself ill/a "Libertarian" by the end of it. I'd say just pick of a good book. Wuthering Heights has a good "love" story.

I'm not an idiot. My point was that the image is quite subtle (bar putting The Trial & Ulysses in medium tier) yet it almost always enrages any /mu/tant the first time they see it.

My guess that if I was to do the same for /lit/ they would agree with the troll chart or would have few grimaces.

There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old's life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged. One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world. The other, of course, involves orcs.
