That's the one Z, I went and looked it up on my shelves after I posted.

I have read virtually everything Rand wrote, as it turns out, I just needed to peek over the shelf she's on to remember them. We the Living, her first published work, is really an excellent book and is, IMHO, much better written than The Fountainhead. As a matter of fact I'm probably going to read it again someday soon, seeing it reminded me of how powerful I found it when I first read it in HS.

Standard warnings above apply, of course, about not trying to base your life on anyone's novel, etc. It's just a good book.
