Title: The Fountainhead Author: Ayn Rand Narrator: Christopher Hurt Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 32 hours 5 minutes Release date: December 1, 1994 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 4.06 of Total 122 Ratings of Narrator: 4.83 of Total 18 Genres: Literary Fiction Publisher's Summary: One of the century’s most challenging novels of ideas, The Fountainhead champions the cause of individualism through the story of a gifted young architect who defies the tyranny of conventional public opinion. The struggle for personal integrity in a world that values conformity above creativity is powerfully illustrated through three characters: Howard Roarke, the genius who is resented because he creates purely for the delight of his own work and on no other terms; Gail Wynand, the newspaper mogul and self-made millionaire whose power was bought by sacrificing his ideals to the lowest common denominator of public taste; and Dominique Francon, the devastating beauty whose desperate search for meaning has been twisted, through despair, into a quest to destroy the single object of her desire: Howard Roarke. Dramatic, poetic, and demanding, The Fountainhead remains one of the towering books on the contemporary intellectual scene.
