Does it surprise you that Atlas Shrugged continues to sell well?

Asked by saint (3975points) February 14th, 2012

Atlas Shrugged is a mystery novel about the disappearance of America’s great thinkers, industrialists, inventors and artists. Its philosophical theme is the role of the mind in man’s existence.
In 2011 all English editions of Atlas Shrugged sold 445,000 copies. That is more than the book sold in 1957 when it was a best seller. Plus,Penguin’s new “Atlas Shrugged” iPad app recently won the Publishing Innovation Award for best app in the fiction category.

Does this surprise you? Why? Why not?
