Fountainhead

I had been chasing Ayn Rand's famous work the Fountainhead for at least three years, but it is over! I had to come to India, a quite hidden corner of this huge country to get it, that is definitely amazing.

I happened to take my bike and headed to town to do some necessary shopping. There are certain products one can only get in the city center. For instance: bread (I mean European style bread, not that terribly sweet Indian) in Hot Bread bakery. Then cheese and toilet paper from Nilgiris supermarket, Mecca for the white community (based almost entirely in Auroville) and for rich Indians (who buy everything indiscriminately if it looks Western enough).
Anyway, after successfuly refilling my stocks I decided to pop in the nearby bookshop. And.... on the top of a pile of books I found Fountainhead. I could not believe! It was obviously last copy, not in perfect condition, and a cheap paperback edition but who cares?! By the way it was in the respectable company of works by Stephen Hawking, Richard Feynman and Joseph Heller. I got it for Rs. 283 approx. 6 euros or 1400 Ft.
Furthermore I found (also last copy) Kafka on the shore, latest work by Haruki Murakami, one of my favourite contemporary authors (actually I only read one work by him, namely Sputnik Sweetheart, but that one three times in a row).
I am delighted I had such a fruitful evening. Now I face the dilemma: which one to start with? Don't worry I will manage! ;-)
