On topic: I'm reading Joseph Conrad's Heart of Darkness. It's a short story, but suprisingly filled with subtextual depth, which my class is now digging for as we read.
yeah i really dig Fountainhead.

When you're done with HOD go watch "Apocalypse Now!" the original NOT the "Redux" version.

It follows the HOD storyline in Vietnam. Although i have to warn you it is brutal and bloody and if you dislike either you may want to skip it. Monumental film, though.
