The one I checked out from the library to read was over a thousand pages. Maybe bigger print or something. I got a little over a third of the way through, when I had to return it because someone else requested it. I got frustrated and read a plot synopsis online to find out what happened. A lot of good ideas, but Ayn seriously could have trimmed it down to 600 pages or so.

But they left out the number one book people lie about having read—The Bible! Really, how many people have actually read the whole thing? Not most, I bet.

I have read The Art of War and 1984.

Wow. Cure for sleeplessness.
