Ayn Rand

The Fountainhead is the novel by Ayn Rand, which deals with the themes of individualism, creativity and the fight against conformity. The main character, architect Howard Roark, represents the ideal of an individualist who fights for his principles an

Roark faces many challenges, including resistance from society, traditional norms, and rivalry with colleagues, such as Peter Keating, who symbolizes conformity and mediocrity. Through characters like Dominique Francon, who falls in love with Roark, and Ellsworth Toohey, a manipulator who seeks to control public opinion, Rand explores the conflicts between individual freedom and social norms.

The book emphasizes the importance of creative spirit and true values, and criticizes collectivism. Through Roark's struggle, Rand promotes the philosophy of Objectivism, which celebrates rationality, independence, and the ethics of selfishness.

The novel is influential and controversial, often provoking debates about the morality and philosophy it espouses.
