Flannery on Ayn:
I hope you don't have friends who recommend Ayn Rand to you. The fiction of Ayn Rand is as low as you can get re fiction. I hope you picked it up off the floor of the subway and threw it in the nearest garbage pail. She makes Mickey Spillane look like Dostoevsky."
Link.
But hey, I went through a Spillane reading spree in my late teens, and I greatly enjoyed it.
