Ok, I loved Atlas Shrugged...and for a while was totally in love with John Galt. Then I decided to do some further reading on Ayn Rand and found that I don't think Ayn and I could be friends. At all.
I think this might be the first time where I am so conscious of the author's life and beliefs and how much I disagree with her...which almost makes me like the book less.
How can you enjoy a book knowing that you disrespect the author on so many levels?
Would Marvin Gaye's voice sound any less sweet if I didn't like him as a person?
How would I view Frida Kahlo's paintings if she had leaned right instead of left?
