ya shes basically saying a man without a purpose is the highest moral sin. every man needs to work for & better himself to his fullest potential & our world could run smoother. objectivism encompasses alot of other ideas like reason - the grass is green the sky is blue (like no supernatural no gods or anything) & capitalism. no social welfare programs and such.
i think she uses the cover of a novel as a way to make it more realistic to us in a way we could better understand rather than a long ass essay on philosophy. ive never read that as the reason but i just imagine cuz it makes sense. its not the best writing ive come across but the message & the whole idea are what make it such am amazing work. u have to think about what ur reading & put things together for urself. no mystery novel ever really made me THINK. thats why i love it.
go libertarians
