Has anyone done any research into the influence Hill had on Rand's writing style? I think it was perfectly reasonable of Rand to study the best selling author of her time to see how to best present her philosophy to the masses, myself, but no one else seems to have looked at this intriguing influence in a critical way. Must've been profoundly annoying for the highly intelligent Rand carefully studying the styling's of someone she so ardently disagreed with, but who was selling so well despite being, to Rand's mind, completely irrational. If anyone decides to look into this, make sure to get first editions of Hill that have not been "updated"Enjoy!

I find the query as implausible as the name.

LOL, Peter. 

 

Rand was such a voracious reader, I doubt anyone had that much influence on her style.
