Tried reading Atlas Shrugged but it strained my English point to the breaking point and beyond. What am I missing out on? Curious about it because the film(s) are mildly interesting.

The answer to the question in thread title.

Seriously though, I've only seen the movies and I enjoy them a lot. I want to read the book, but I got a lot of other ones to read first.

Some awful and often incoherent ranting.

Did you prefer the cast of part one or part two? I liked one's cast better, Schilling did a great job.
