Thus Spoke Zarathustra

More about the book

Friedrich Nietzsche's work features Zarathustra, a sun-worshipping prophet who revisits his own teachings to challenge prevailing societal values tied to religion and commerce. Set in a land that believes it embodies civilization, Zarathustra aims to reveal the truth about their existence. This new translation by Dr. Stephen J. Metcalf emphasizes a darker, more complex interpretation, blending Gothic horror with lyrical and grotesque elements. The text oscillates between aggression and tenderness, showcasing the multifaceted nature of Nietzsche's philosophy.
