Alisa Zinovyevna Rosenbaum, pen name Ayn Rand, was a Russian born American author. She's been quite influential in the american lolbertarian movement and is kind of a Patron Saint for many rightoids. And is not only limited to the US, I've seen many Ayn Rand books in sale in Brazilian Bookstores, they have translations of all of her works from Atlas Shrugged to her essays like “The Virtue of Selfishness”.
Rand was never considered a good writer, dramacels, what do you guys think of this lady?

I've read some of her essays and change tried to read atlas and anthem. Her prose is so bad and I find her essay logic middling. Especially her utter misunderstanding of other philosophers. That's not to say every individual essay is bad but the misses might as well be aiming off planet.
