Does anyone have any suggestions?    Report

Even so, I'll keep supporting this site, just to keep the heartbeat going a little bit.  If you want to post stuff, I'll respond maybe once a week or whatever.  I last read Atlas Shrugged maybe 15 years ago, but I'm constantly refreshing my memory by occasionally rereading some of the main passages and examining the derivative literature, such as Rand's later works. So, yeah, the book is quite a task.  Grab your dictionary.  Otherwise, have fun, otherwise it isn't worth it.  Enjoy!    Report

I have read Atlas Shrugged several times, as well as some reading on the making of Atlas Shrugged. Yes, indeed, many things can be asked about some details of this story, and I guess I'm knowledgeable enough on it to answer many questions. I suppose you have finished reading Atlas Shrugged at this time.    Report
