Beyond Good and Evil (Penguin Classics)

There’s a lot to this book, if you haven’t read anything by Dostoyevsky before this book could be a little challenging to get into, that being said it was a very good read and a real page turner. There’s some really good stuff in there that is broken down into plain English. Some of the shorter quotes I think were beautiful especially the ones about self reliance and motivations for someone to cling onto religion.

Great book! I was recommended this by my now boyfriend and it’s a 10/10 book if you really like to think. The book itself came in perfect condition no creases or damage.

First and foremost: as far as this specific translation of the book goes- I didn't have too much of an issue with it. I will say that whilst reading, I noticed some of the letters were scratched. This will not go against my opinion of the book. At first, I was going place this book in C tier. Only because I couldn't understand it. But after finishing, I will instead put it in A tier. (For me) To start off, I will say to be careful! Only because Neitzsche is (to my understanding) a misunderstood source. With that out of the way, I would like to say that this book did indeed challenge what I believed about "Good" and "Bad." How? Well, Neitzsche has an interesting view on the concept of "Good and Evil" viewing it as "Imposing your will to power onto others and the world around you" By the fourth section, you are given various quotes. Some of those I found myself liking. One of them being: "He who fights with monsters mustn't become one. The longer you gaze into the abyss, it gazes also into you" For me to understand what was said here, I feel as if I should look more into Neitzsche (as far as this review is concerned at the moment) Final score: 4.5/5

To put it frank, I enjoyed this book because of the meager advice it gave me. I learned that the foundations of being human is just a riddle that pertains to something bigger. I shall commit no evil and yet think the same when I find solace in doing the right thing. I enjoyed the freedom and ruminations it taught me. Like a bow I was taut and ready to fire. I find his work to be so expedient and thoughtful!

First of all, front cover has a huge crease, not a big deal. Then I go through the book, and pages are stuck together, printing error. Okay, I can get over it, but then there's GLITTER ALL ON MY HANDS. I feel like this is an arts and craft project a kindergartner swapped with the book I ordered, would buy again

The smell of ink and paper from a brand new book is always worth it. This is the kind of book most would recommend taking to the park on a day off. It came fast and im happy with it.

Definitely makes you think.

If I didn’t want to actually read this, I’d be satisfied. Problem is, I wanted to, but also leave it looking nice on my bookshelf afterwards. For the price, the quality is absolutely shocking. While attractive, nearly page is stuck to the next, which interrupts the reading as I delicately pry the thin sheets apart.

Good read

Extremely hard to understand. I am not very smart and have trouble reading. Extremely insightful thoughts. chatgpt has helped me decipher this page by page. Have decided to read a modern translation, there's a lot so choose wisely

Beyond Good and Evil" by Friedrich Nietzsche is a powerful and thought-provoking exploration of morality, truth, and individuality. Nietzsche challenges traditional values and urges readers to question societal norms, embrace intellectual freedom, and create their own values. His poetic and bold writing style, combined with deep insights, makes this a timeless philosophical masterpiece that continues to inspire and provoke thought. A must-read for anyone seeking to break free from conventional thinking!

Bom livro

Hi, this is more about this particular print of the book. The quality of paper, printing, fonts, and spacing is extremely poor. I highly do not recommend exactly this print. Choose some other publisher.
