Just finished Nietzsche's Thus Spake Zarathustra in Kaufmann's The Portable Nietzsche. (Actually Kaufmann gives Spoke not Spake, but I prefer the archaism I grew up with.) Sort of enjoyed it for the weird vigour of the (very, very) purple prose, but can't say I ended up any wiser as to what FN is chundering on about. Can't help but sympathise with Jeeves's advice to Bertie at the end of Carry on Jeeves:
You would not enjoy Nietzsche, sir. He is fundamentally unsound.
