THUS SPAKE ZARATHUSTRA

A new translation of this seminal work by the prize-winning translator of W.G. Sebald, Goethe, Rilke, Herta Muller and Elfriede Jelinek. In Thus Spake Zarathustra, Nietzsche's infamous protagonist sets off on a grand and noble quest to find meaning in a secular world and to live joyfully alongside the knowledge of death. In this new translation by Michael Hulse the first in English by a poet Zarathustra is revealed in all his bold and ironic splendour as a man who prizes self worth above all else as a moral code to live by. Radical, uncategorisable, contradictory and often humorous, Thus Spake Zarathustra is a grand celebration of human existence by one of the most influential thinkers of the past two centuries.
