Nietzsche

In this vivid biography, Zweig eschews traditional academic discussion and focuses on Nietzsche's habits, passions and obsessions. Concentrating on the man rather than the work, on the tragedy of his existence and his apartness from the world in which he moved in enforced isolation, Zweig draws the reader inexorably into Nietzsche's tragic life. This edition is illustrated with numerous photographs relating to Nietzsche and his European locations, in a superb translation by Will Stone.
