Ayn Rand ---- Is She Really A Great Writer???

Prominent literary critic Harold Bloom, Ph.D. (Yale) castigates Ayn Rand whose "moral" philosophy is that of a 5-year old child.

I e-mailed Harold Bloom, Sterling Professor of the Humanities and English at Yale University. Professor Bloom did not mince words: “Ayn Rand was a writer of no value whatsoever, whether aesthetic or intellectual. The Tea Party deserves her, but the rest of us do not. It is not less than obscene that any educational institution that relies even in part on public funds should ask students to consider her work. We are threatened these days by vicious mindlessness and this is one of its manifestations.”
