Paul, Whittaker Chambers used to write for the Communist Paper ( The Worker?) that was located down on 14th Street, in NYC. From there he had a "falling out" with the Party and disappeared, actually going underground and becaming a Communist spy. Eventually he has a turn of heart over the actions of Uncle Joe and goes on the lam to escape the Party and evenutally becomes an informer for the US govt. So his critique, I believe, is not just against her book, but against the theme as well.

Ayn Rand seems to be one of those authors you read when you're about 18 years old. I did, too, but none of it rubbed off on me. But if you don't like black and white, try "Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance".
