Howard Roark
>From 'The Fountainhead'
By CHRIS MATTHEW SCIABARRA
"You want to stand alone against the whole world?" That's certainly how
it seems for Howard Roark as he's expelled from architecture school for
refusing to copy the classical styles of the past. He'd sooner work as a
day laborer than compromise his imaginative designs. He knows that every
building, like every person, must have integrity if it is to survive in
a harsh world. He'll take his lumps, but at least he'll keep his
self-respect.
Long before "Atlas Shrugged" became the bible of Ayn Rand's Objectivist
movement, and long before fans and critics would argue over Rand's
status as novelist or philosopher, there was "The Fountainhead," and
Howard Roark.
