Yes but the audio books also drown out the aussie lassie in my GPS saying "Take exit .... The other day I finished listening to "Atlas Shrugged" by Ayn Rand. It's an interesting story, It's amazing when you think of it that is so well tells how socialism and communism lead to rot and destruction of a productive society. Published in 1957 it is a great analog showing the collapse of socialist countries. I decided to listen because lindy posted an article, something about this is a all time best seller rated 36 or 38. I downloaded it from the local Connectcut online bibliomation.lib.overdrive.com Description This is the story of a man who said that he would stop the motor of the world-and did. Is he a destroyer or a liberator? Why does he have to fight his battle not against his enemies but against those who need him most? Why does he fight his hardest battle against the woman he loves? You will learn the answers to these questions when you discover the reason behind the baffling events that play havoc with the lives of the amazing men and women in this remarkable book. Tremendous in scope, breathtaking in its suspense, Atlas Shrugged is Ayn rand's magnum opus, which launched an ideology and a movement. With the publication of this work in 1957, Rand gained an instant following and became a phenomenon. Atlas Shrugged emerged as a premier moral apologia for Capitalism, a defense that had an electrifying effect on millions of readers (and now listeners) who have never heard Capitalism defended in other than technical terms.
