LibriVox recording of Thus Spake Zarathustra: A Book for All and None (version 2)

(includes annotations) by Friedrich Nietzsche. (Translated by Thomas Common.)

Read in English by John Van Stan

The modern British philosopher, Anthony M. Ludovici, said that this text \u201cis unquestionably Nietzsche\u2019s opus magnum.\u201d However, he warns the reader that since \u201cthe book with the most mysterious, startling, or suggestive title, will always stand the best chance of being purchased by those who have no other criteria to guide them in their choice than the aspect of a title-page \u2026 \u2018Thus Spake Zarathustra\u2019 is almost always the first and often the only one of Nietzsche\u2019s books that falls into the hands of the uninitiated.\u201d He therefore recommends reading this text alongside some scholarly annotations, which Ludovici gratefully supplies in the volume read here. To keep Ludovici\u2019s intention, in this version of \u2018Zarathustra\u2019 the reader includes these annotations (where available) immediately after the reading. Summary by jvanstan
