read "The Fountainhead" when I was about 14. Didn't really grab me.

Of course not, just my point. It takes a higher level of maturity to 'read' The Fountainhead or any of her works. A good beginning obviously being to watch the movie with Gary Cooper, not to bad in all its tragedy.

On the contrary, I reread The Fountainhead and Atlas Shrugged when I was in my early 20s. I found her premise to be utterly ridiculous. I couldn't even begin to understand why I was turned on as a kid. After reading her bio, I now understand why she wrote what she wrote......she emigrated to the US from a communist country.
