In Nietzsche’s classic philosophical novel, the prophet Zarathustra has come down from the mountains to offer his wisdom and philosophy to the world. Impress all your friends by actually knowing the context for some of Nietzsche’s most famous ideas, such as the Ubermensche (“overman”), the will to power and the pronouncement that “God is Dead.” Written in alternating epigrams and bracing prose, this work is certainly not for the faint of heart, but if you're willing to give it a shot, it will give you back much to think about.
