FountainHead

1-2 weeks ago a though came to my mind. The thought was of reading FountainHead by Ayn Rand. Well this novel is said to be the best Rand novel.
Sometimes I do somethings only for the sake of doing them. i watched three parts of GodFather movie just for the sake of watching it. When we do something only for the sake of doing it. We feel nothing. We neither feel any joy nor we regret doing it.
I am not a great fan of Ayn Rand. I had read one more novel of Rand named "we the living". Honestly I didnt like that novel that time much but yes I found one character in that novel who cant be compared with anyone. His name was Andrei Taganov and I read that whole novel for sake of him. Since that time I have been trying to find someone who can be comparable to him in anyway. I decided to read fountainhead with expectation that I shall find one more character who can be said to be incomparable. Who can be unique of his own kind.
Well so I started reading fountainhead.
This was story about struggle of an architect named Howard Roark. This book shows how the great person are laughed at by out society. Genius are punished and fools are rewarded. Howard Roark who was a man of his own ideals. He used to call it selfishness. In this book selfishness has been defined in a very different way. He rejects clients at the most crucial period of his career but does not leave his own ideals.
This books shows that Third rate architects like Peter Keating are rewarded and genius like Howard Roark and Steven Mellory are laughed at.
The society never accepts changes. Every innovation is not accepted by society easily. Even the people like Ellsworth Toohy who understood his work completely oppose him. Finally he fights the whole world and proves himself to them. He proves that he is the best architect.
