Description: The Joyous Science by Friedrich Nietzsche, R. Kevin Hill New to Penguin Classics, The Joyous Science is Nietzsches most personal book - and one of his bestThe Joyous Science is a liberating voyage of discovery as Nietzsches realization that God is dead and his critique of morality, the arts and modernity give way to an exhilarating doctrine of self-emancipation and the concept of eternal recurrence. Here is Nietzsche at his most personal and affirmative; in his words, this is a book of exuberance, restlessness, contrariety and April showers. With its unique voice and style, its playful combination of poetry and prose, and its invigorating quest for self-emancipation, The Joyous Science is a literary tour de force and quite possibly Nietzsches best book.
