Book Reviews of Thus Spake Zarathustra
Book Review: Unleash the power within
Summary: 5 Stars
What a book this is! The announcement, the challenge to humanity, 'I give you, the superman!' God is dead. Many of Nietzsches idea's are so modern, or the foundation of modern life (think of the messiah complexes and beyond good or evil personas of rock stars like Marilyn Manson), it is so hard to believe he wrote this in the Victorian age (not hard then to see why he went insane). The most obvious clue to the era it was written is the longwindness, and difficulty of reading the text through. It is perhaps best to approach it in shortbursts, not only for the ideas but to appreciate the poetry of the text - what a way to present philosophy! So in keeping with the revolutionary nature of the work.
Thus spake Zarathustra is an ideal book to start reading Nietzsche first hand. If approaching Nietzsche for the first time, or if seeking a more general overview of his thought, I recommend the easy reading, Introducing Nietzsche, Third Edition (Introducing...),' by Laurence Gane. Otherwise enjoy, and go from here to read 'Beyond Good or Evil.'
