Paperback. A Book for All and None. In 'Thus Spake Zarathustra', Nietzsche conducts his protagonist through the great journey of life - the quest for meaning, and fulfilment, and for a way to live with the knowledge of death. In this faithful new translation by Michael Hulse, Zarathustra is revealed in all his bold and ironic splendour, as a man who strives to find a way to live - joyfully - in a secular world. Luminous and ecstatic, this book is a grand celebration of perilous, beautiful, human life, by one of the most important philosophers in history. BIC Classification: HP. .
