My employers at the time were movers and shakers in the Boston "Objectivist" community, and strongly encouraged me to read her doorstop novels, that could have been entitled "Fountainhead Shrugged", so similar were the plots and characters. Her essays were disturbing, especially the one in which she expressed admiration for a child rapist and murderer. But the one that sealed my contempt for her was "The Virtue of Selfishness", a mercifully short book that plumbed new depths of malice and greed.
Shit. Now I have to go wash my brain after thinking about her.
